Travel disruption as Cyprus flights cancelled following Israel strikes on Iran

UK travellers are set to experience significant disruption as Cyprus's airports implement emergency measures and scrap flights in response to Israeli air strikes on Iran. The airspace between Iran and Israel has been cleared of civilian aircraft, resulting in over a dozen flight cancellations by Cypriot authorities. Both Larnaca and Paphos airports have gone into emergency mode – preparing for possible rerouted flights from Israel. In reaction to the heightened tensions, Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides called a National Security Council meeting for Friday. Cyprus has triggered its Special National Plan "Estia" to manage the arrival and subsequent repatriation of foreign nationals. In anticipation of increased threats, Cyprus police have fortified security at both air and sea ports. A spokesman told CNA that strict measures were already in place in the above areas. However, following the Israeli attack on Iran, security measures were strengthened, including at the Israeli Embassy in Cyprus. Further travel chaos could also impact nations such as Turkey, Egypt, and potentially even Greece due to their proximity, reports Wales Online. Israel has attacked the Iranian capital in strikes that targeted the country's nuclear programme and killed at least two top military officers. The assault on Tehran raises the potential for an all-out war between the two bitter Middle East adversaries and appears to be the most significant attack Iran has faced since its war with Iraq in the 1980s. The strikes came amid simmering tensions over Iran's rapidly advancing nuclear programme and appeared certain to trigger a reprisal, with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warning that "severe punishment" would be directed at Israel. Hours later, Israel's military said it had begun intercepting Iranian drones launched in retaliation. An Israeli official said the interceptions were taking place outside of Israeli territory, but did not elaborate. Iraq said more than 100 Iranian drones had crossed its airspace, and a short time later neighbouring Jordan said its air force and defence systems had intercepted several missiles and drones that had entered its airspace for fear they would fall in its territory. Israel's attack on Iran hit several sites, including the country's main nuclear enrichment facility, where black smoke could be seen rising into the air. The leader of Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, Gen Hossein Salami, was confirmed dead, Iranian state television reported. Oil prices have surged after Israel launched an attack on Iran's nuclear programme with financial markets anxious over retaliatory action. The price of Brent crude jumped nearly 10% higher at one stage before easing back a little to stand 7% higher at 74 US dollars a barrel. London's FTSE 100 Index dropped 0.6%, down 56 points to 8828.6, in early morning trading on Friday after heavy overnight losses on Asian stock markets as the worries spooked investors, with the UK's top tier falling back from a record high set in the previous session.

U.S.-China talks ‘a bit stalled' and need Trump and Xi to weigh in, Treasury Secretary Bessent says

BEIJING — U.S.-China trade talks 'are a bit stalled,' requiring the two countries' leaders to speak directly, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told Fox News in an interview Thursday local time. 'I believe that we will be having more talks with them in the next few weeks,' he said, adding that there may be a call between the two countries' leaders 'at some point.' After a rapid escalation in trade tensions last month, Bessent helped the world's two largest economies reach a breakthrough agreement in Switzerland on May 12. The countries agreed to roll back recent tariff increases of more than 100% for 90 days, or until mid-August. Diplomatic officials from both sides had a call late last week. Still, the U.S. has pushed ahead with tech restrictions on Beijing, drawing its ire, while China has yet to significantly ease restrictions on rare earths, contrary to Washington's expectations. 'I think that given the magnitude of the talks, given the complexity, that this is going to require both leaders to weigh in with each other,' Bessent said. 'They have a very good relationship and I am confident that the Chinese will come to the table when President [Donald] Trump makes his [preferences] known.' Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping last spoke in January, just before the U.S. president was sworn in for his second term. While Trump has in recent weeks said he would like to speak with Xi, analysts expect China to agree to that only if there is certainty that there will be no surprises from the U.S. during the call. China has maintained communication with the U.S. since the agreement in Switzerland, Chinese Ministry of Commerce Spokesperson He Yongqian told reporters at a regular briefing Thursday. But regarding chip export controls, she said that 'China again urges the U.S. to immediately correct its wrong practices ... and together safeguard the consensus reached at high-level talks in Geneva.' That's according to a CNBC translation of her Mandarin-language remarks. When asked whether China would suspend rare earths export controls announced in early April, He did not respond directly. Restrictions on items that could have both military and civilian applications reflect international practice, as well as China's position of 'upholding world peace and regional stability,' she said. This week, the Trump administration also announced it would start revoking visas for Chinese students. 'The U.S. decision to revoke Chinese student visas is fully unjustified,' Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said Thursday, according to an official English transcript. 'It uses ideology and national security as pretext.'
