The Secret History of Flight 149
Imagine boarding a flight thinking you’re going on holiday, but instead you get taken hostage by Saddam Hussein.
It might sound far-fetched, but in August 1990 this really happened to the passengers and crew of British Airways Flight 149.
What followed has been dubbed the most shocking government cover-up of the last thirty years, and now there’s a new podcast about it. In this new podcast you’ll hear directly from the hostages - the people used as human shields by the Iraqi regime.
