His remarks came during a meeting on Sunday with Yemeni Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Shaya Mohsin Zindani, on the sidelines of their participation in the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) foreign ministers' meeting in Turkey's Istanbul.

US Strikes on Iran Raise Aviation Safety Fears

Israa Farhan The recent US airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities have raised serious concerns about the safety of civil aviation in the Middle East, according to a leading airspace risk monitoring organization. As tensions intensify between Iran , Israel, and the United States, major airlines are cancelling flights and rerouting routes to avoid high-risk zones. Safe Airspace, a platform operated by aviation intelligence firm OPSGROUP, warned on Sunday that the US military action could significantly increase the threat to American carriers operating in the region. While no direct threats have been issued against civil aviation, the group pointed out that Iran has previously threatened to target US military interests in the Middle East—either directly or through proxy groups like Hezbollah. Commercial airlines have already been avoiding large swathes of airspace over Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Israel. According to data from FlightRadar24, air traffic continued to divert on Sunday, following routes over the Caspian Sea to the north or via Egypt and Saudi Arabia to the south, even at the cost of longer flight durations and increased fuel and crew expenses. The disruption follows over a week of escalating conflict, beginning with Israeli airstrikes on Iran on 13 June and followed by retaliatory missile launches by Tehran. As a result, many international carriers suspended flights to affected destinations; however, some evacuation flights are being operated from neighboring countries to repatriate stranded travelers, including Israelis. Israel briefly reopened its airspace for six hours on Sunday to allow the return of citizens who have been unable to fly home since the onset of the conflict. Despite this temporary reopening, uncertainty remains high. The latest developments have compounded existing airspace restrictions across the region, severely impacting commercial flight operations and prompting fears of broader travel disruptions if tensions persist. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
