Flydubai flights to Israel have been suspended for a period of six days, with the possibility of an extension pending further investigation. The suspension comes after Israeli airlines received temporary approval from the Shin Bet security agency to operate flights to the United Arab Emirates, but only on leased aircraft.
This development suggests a potential security concern or regulatory issue that has prompted the temporary halt in services. The specific reasons for the investigation and the subsequent suspension have not been fully disclosed, but the involvement of the Shin Bet indicates a security dimension.
The temporary approval for Israeli airlines to fly to the UAE, contingent on using chartered planes, highlights the complex and evolving nature of air travel regulations and security protocols between the two nations following the Abraham Accords.
