Alert flyers! Iran, Iraq, Israel close airspace amid attack on Tehran—Here's what flights have been cancelled, rerouted

In a significant escalation of tensions in the Middle East, Israel, Iran, and Iraq have temporarily closed their airspace following coordinated airstrikes by the United States and Israel on Tehran. This military action is part of a broader conflict, reflecting long-standing animosities between Iran and the US, especially under the administration of President Donald Trump, who has increased military presence in the region. The closure of airspace has led to the cancellation and rerouting of numerous flights, affecting both commercial and military operations. As the situation develops, airlines and travelers are advised to stay updated on flight statuses and potential delays as security concerns grow amidst fears of further military confrontations. This incident highlights the fragile geopolitical landscape in the Middle East and the implications for international air travel, urging vigilance among travelers and aviation authorities alike.
