Israel-Iran conflict grounds flights and clears Middle East airspace
Briefly

In a dramatic escalation of hostilities, Israel has launched a targeted strike on Iran's nuclear and military sites, prompting an immediate and severe response from Iran. The ensuing conflict has resulted in airlines across the globe rerouting or canceling flights, ensuring the safety of air travel in the volatile region. Key airports, including Israel's Ben Gurion, Tehran's Mehrabad, and Amman's Queen Alia International Airport, have closed, complicating travel for thousands, while major airlines adjust their routes to avoid the impacted airspace.
Due to the current special security situation, all flights to and from Ben Gurion Airport (LLBG) are canceled until further notice.
Airlines quickly cleared Israeli, Iranian, Jordanian, and Iraqi airspace to ensure that commercial airliners are not inadvertently struck by missiles or other weapons.
