UAE Resumes Air Traffic After Temporary Full Airspace Closure
Real-time monitoring will continue to ensure the highest level of air navigation safety, the authority added. It also expressed gratitude to passengers and airlines for their cooperation, emphasizing that teams remain fully prepared to respond to any developments.
The suspension had been implemented as an "exceptional precautionary measure" to safeguard flights, crews, and national territory after the Ministry of Defense reported responding to incoming missile and drone threats from Iran.
The move comes amid escalating hostilities in the Middle East following joint attacks on Iran by Israel and the United States on Feb. 28, which have claimed over 1,300 lives, including that of then-Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as stated by reports.
In retaliation, Iran has carried out drone and missile strikes targeting Israel, Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf nations hosting US military forces, resulting in casualties, infrastructure damage, and disruptions to both global markets and aviation.
