Air India Halts Flights After Israel Attack

Air India has temporarily suspended flights to Tel Aviv following a Houthi missile attack near Ben Gurion Airport earlier today. The airline announced the suspension will remain in effect until May 6th, citing safety concerns for passengers and crew. A Delhi-bound flight was diverted to Abu Dhabi immediately after the incident. This disruption highlights the escalating regional tensions and the increasing risk to civilian air travel. While Air India’s decision is a prudent measure to prioritize safety, it underscores the broader impact of the conflict on international aviation and travel plans. The situation demands a swift and effective resolution to ensure the safety of air routes and the stability of regional travel. It remains to be seen how long these disruptions will last, but the immediate focus is rightly on passenger safety and avoiding further escalation.
