Donald Trump signs revised travel ban order, excludes Iraq
The revised version of the order removed Iraq from a list of countries targeted in a US travel ban.
The order, however, won't affect those who have been already issued visas, media reports said.
"It will be phased in over the next two weeks to avoid the chaotic, same-day start of the Jan. 27 order," the New York Times reported quoting Department of Homeland Security officials.
The new order would impose a 90-day travel ban to the United States by citizens of six Muslim-dominated nations - Iran, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen.
