Israel Airport Authority Denies Reports of Airspace Closure
The Israel Airports Authority has refuted media reports claiming the country's airspace has been closed. The authority stated that Israel's airspace remains open and all airports are operating normally.
"Contrary to media reports, the airspace of the State of Israel is open, and aviation activities at all airports are proceeding as usual," the Airports Authority announced. They specifically emphasized that the airspace remained open throughout a recent incident and was never closed at any stage.
The statement comes amid reports of an incident involving a Flydubai flight, which led to speculation and concern. The Prime Minister's office had previously stated that the situation concerning the Flydubai plane was under control. The Israeli military chief of staff had also conducted a situation assessment due to the aircraft incident.
