TEHRAN: Iran announced that both domestic and international flights will now operate at all major airports across the country from 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. The reopening comes after temporary suspensions linked to heightened regional tensions and safety concerns.

However, Isfahan and Tabriz airports remain closed, the report noted, without specifying the reasons for their continued suspension.

The reopening also includes Iran’s airspace being made available once again for international transit flights, an important development for global aviation routes in the region.
