BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) -- The global package delivery service DHL said Tuesday it had resumed flights to Baghdad, after one of its planes was hit by a missile on its approach to the airport.
The missile struck a cargo plane on Nov. 23, forcing it to make an emergency landing at Baghdad's airport with its wing aflame. All three crew members were unhurt.
A U.S. military investigation indicated the plane was hit by a surface-to-air missile.
"From the advice we received, it is now a safe environment to fly," DHL spokeswoman Patricia Thomson told The Associated Press. She said flights to Baghdad International Airport resumed last Friday and the cargo company would "soon try to commence with three flights per day."
Thomson refused for security reasons to say what added measures DHL was taking to prevent further attacks.
It was the first time a civilian aircraft flying in and out of Baghdad had been hit by the shoulder-fired missiles that insurgents have used to down military helicopters elsewhere in Iraq.
