Iraq No-Fly Zone (b/w), U.S. Air Force map/infographic. The image is 6x6.5 inches & 300 ppi. The no-fly zone in Iraq resulted as part of the cease-fire agreement ending the Gulf War of 1990-1991. Initially it involved only the northern line at the 36th parallel. This was initiated to support humanitarian operations to the Kurds in the north by preventing Iraqi military operations in this area. The southern no-fly zone was created in 1992 and was extended to the thirty-third parallel in 1966. It was intended to protect the Shiite Muslims in the southern areas from Iraqi fighter aircraft.
