Tehran, Apr 25 (AP/UNB) — Commercial flight operations have resumed at Imam Khomeini International Airport for the first time since the outbreak of war between Iran and the United States and Israel about two months ago.
Iran’s state-run television said Saturday that flights from the airport are now operating to destinations including Istanbul in Turkey, Muscat in Oman and Medina in Saudi Arabia.
Flight-tracking platform Flightradar24 showed at least three Istanbul-bound flights departing the airport in the morning, confirming the partial restoration of international air connectivity.
Iran had earlier reopened parts of its airspace this month during a temporary ceasefire with the United States, allowing limited aviation activity to resume.
Authorities have not yet announced when full-scale international flight operations will be completely restored.
