Iraq’s Civil Aviation Authority on Saturday extended
the closure of the country’s airspace to all incoming, outgoing, and transit
flights for an additional 72 hours as regional security concerns persist.
In a notice, the authority said that the restriction
will remain in effect from 12:00 p.m. local time (09:00 UTC) on Saturday until
12:00 p.m. on Tuesday, citing ongoing assessments of the security situation and
regional developments.
The authority had previously prolonged the suspension
of air navigation on Wednesday for 72 hours.
