Iran has officially reopened its airspace across most of the country following a shutdown triggered by conflict with Israel last month.
The move comes after a ceasefire between the two nations came into effect on June 24.
According to the state-run IRNA news agency, Tehran’s Mehrabad and Imam Khomeini International Airports, along with airports in the northern, eastern, western, and southern regions, are now operational and ready to handle both domestic and international flights.
Flights will be allowed to operate between 5:00 am and 6:00 pm across all regions, with the exception of Isfahan and Tabriz.
Authorities stated that flights in these two cities will resume once the necessary infrastructure is restored.
Iran had fully closed its airspace on June 13 after a series of Israeli airstrikes provoked missile retaliation from Tehran. The country initially began reopening airspace in its eastern regions and gradually expanded overflight permissions for international carriers once the truce was in place.
Iranian officials confirmed that most airports are now equipped to resume standard operations.
