Iraq has agreed to buy 28 Czech-made Aero Vodochody L-159 advanced trainer/light-attack jets valued at $1 billion dollars (770 billions euros), a Czech defence ministry announced on Friday.

Agreenment to buy the 24 new planes and four older army surplus aircraft was reached at the end of a two-day visit to Prague by Nouri al-Maliki.

Earlier in the week, Iraq and Russia announced a $4.2 billion arms agreement.
