Despite the ongoing security tensions, the Israeli Transport Ministry has decided to keep the country's airspace open for now, according to reports. The decision is subject to further situation assessments.
The Israeli Transport Ministry has decided not to impose airspace restrictions at this stage, despite the elevated security situation amid ongoing tensions with Iran. The decision comes hours after the Iran-Iraq border region experienced airspace closures, and as Israeli defense officials continue to assess the threat picture. The situation is subject to change based on further assessments, the ministry indicated. The Zioneer has previously reported on the evolving airspace situation, including the closure of Iranian airspace north of Tehran and the grounding of flights across Iran following Israeli strikes earlier this week. For now, Ben Gurion Airport remains open and operational, though some international carriers have independently canceled or diverted flights.
