GENE RANDALL, CNN ANCHOR: The Saudi passenger jet with 95 passengers and 17 crew members aboard hijacked over Egypt today has landed in Baghdad. And CNN's Jane Arraf is in the Iraqi capitol. She is on the phone -- Jane.</s>JANE ARRAF, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Gene, I'm at Saddam International Airport just on the road leading to the terminal. They have blocked off this road, but witnesses saw this airplane land here less than half an hour ago. That plane, after landing in Damascus, flew to Baghdad where the airport has, effectively, been closed by an effective air embargo for the last 10 years. There are police cars going in and out. There are speeding government vehicles. We can't see the runway, but we do know that the plane is there. The Iraqi government itself has announced that it landed, which is significant. Iraq has wanted to play a part in the events happening in the Middle East. It's opposed to the peace process and it has called for a holy war against Israel in support of the Palestinians. Now, we don't know the motivation, obviously, of whoever is in control of the plane. But the fact that it has asked to come to Baghdad is a significant thing -- Gene.</s>RANDALL: Jane Arraf in Baghdad; thanks very much Jane.
