Egyptian rock band Cairokee's concert set to take place at the Roman Theater in Baghdad, Iraq on on Tuesday (April 24) has been postponed until further notice. 

No new date has been announced.

The gig marking the band's first-ever concert in Iraq was due to the U.S.-Israel-Iran war, which has spilled out into the entire Gulf region and beyond.

The war has killed thousands and sparked an energy crisis since the initial strikes that killed ​Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Iran has virtually shut the Strait of Hormuz, which normally carries about a fifth of the world's oil and liquefied natural ​gas, but on Saturday the ⁠Tasnim news agency reported Iran had authorised the passage of vessels carrying essential goods to its ports.
