UAE’s Air Arabia to resume flights to Iraq after Iran-Israel truce
Air Arabia, a low-cost carrier located in Sharjah, the UAE, will resume flights to neighboring countries, including Iraq, on July 1, following the reopening of regional airspace after Iran and Israel’s 12-day battle.
The carrier confirmed the gradual resumption of previously stopped flights as regional airspaces have been reopened following a ceasefire deal between Iran and Israel, according to Gulf News.
The airline will resume flight operations to Iraqi destinations, including Baghdad, Erbil, and Basra.
Air Arabia will also restart flights to Iran, Russia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia.
Iraqi Airways resumed flights on Wednesday, a day after Iran and Israel reached a ceasefire agreement following a 12-day conflict in which Tel Aviv and Tehran exchanged missile and drone raids.
After Israel struck Iran on June 13, claiming that its goal was to prevent the country from getting nuclear weapons, airlines continued to avoid huge sections of the Middle East.
This avoidance was due to continuous missile clashes between Israel and Iran, the most recent interruption in the region.
