  • Iran fully reopens airspace after ceasefire with Israel

Iran has lifted all remaining restrictions on its airspace that were imposed at the onset of its 12-day conflict with Israel, the country's Civil Aviation Organization (CAO) announced Saturday.

In a statement posted on its website, the CAO said that both domestic and international flight operations have returned to pre-war levels. It also confirmed that Tehran's Mehrabad International Airport has resumed round-the-clock operations.

The phased reopening of Iranian airspace began on June 26, with airports gradually resuming normal operations. On July 17, the CAO announced that all airports had returned to full service, except for Mehrabad, which remained on a limited schedule from 4:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. local time.
