News Wrap: Delta reduces flights by 40 percent amid falling travel demand

In our news wrap Friday, Delta Air Lines is reducing flights by 40 percent since the pandemic has triggered a decline in travel demand. The company is halting all flights to continental Europe for the next 30 days. Also, Iraq denounced U.S. strikes on an Iranian-backed militia group blamed for a Wednesday rocket attack that killed three U.S. service members. The U.S. retaliation killed six people.
