Middle East Nations Close Airspace After Israel Strikes Iran
Airlines traversing the Mideast face new challenges after Israel launched air strikes against Iran, leading a number of countries in the region to close their airspace. Israel halted overflights until further notice, as did Iran after ceasing operations at its main airport in Tehran. Neighboring Iraq, Syria and Jordan were among the countries closing airspace after Israel struck Iran’s nuclear program and ballistic-missile sites on Friday.
