Iran resumes international flights after a 20-day suspension
Iran's Imam Khomeini International Airport has welcomed its first foreign flight since the resumption of international air travel after a 20-day suspension, local media reported on Friday. According to Student News Network, Mehdi Ramezani, spokesperson for Iran's Civil Aviation Organisation, confirmed the Flydubai flight from the United Arab Emirates landed in Tehran on Wednesday, after extensive security and diplomatic coordination. The landing marks a "new phase of stability" for Iran's aviation sector, Ramezani said, after a recent 12-day conflict with Israel. He added that it represented a return to calm and intelligent management of the nation's airspace. International flights will gradually resume to specific destinations in coordination with authorities, to meet public needs and restore air links, he said. Iran and Israel agreed to a ceasefire last month after a bloody conflict that saw Israel striking hundreds of Iranian military infrastructure targets and nuclear-related sites, and Iran firing missiles at Israel in return. The truce was brokered by the US after it dropped 30,000 pound "bunker buster" bombs on three of Iran's key nuclear sites.

Iran reopens airspace; international flights resume after 20-day halt — 'new phase of stability'
Iran's Imam Khomeini International Airport has officially reopened its skies to international air travel following a 20-day suspension. The first foreign flight, a Flydubai flight from the United Arab Emirates, landed on Wednesday, only after extensive security and diplomatic coordination. Mehdi Ramezani, spokesperson for Iran's Civil Aviation Organisation, confirmed the successful landing to the Student News Network, highlighting the extensive security and diplomatic coordination that preceded the flight, ANI reported. The landing marks a 'new phase of stability' for Iran's aviation sector, Ramezani said in a statement, speaking of the disruptions caused by the recent tensions with Israel. Due to the Israel-Iran conflict, several airlines suspended or rerouted flights, and countries like Iraq, Jordan and Iran closed their airspace for safety concerns. The 20-day suspension of international flights was a direct consequence of a recent bloody 12-day conflict between Iran and Israel, the news agency reported. The hostilities began on June 13, 2025, when Israel launched 'Operation Rising Lion', targeting Iranian nuclear and various military facilities. After Israel targeted numerous Iranian military infrastructure and nuclear-related sites, Iran responded to the Israeli attacks by firing missiles at Israel. The conflict escalated further, with Iran also striking a US base in Qatar. The direct hostilities ended after Iran and Israel agreed to a ceasefire, brokered by the US last month. The US aided in de-escalation, including deploying 30,000-pound 'bunker-busting' bombs on three of Iran's key nuclear sites before the truce, the news agency reported.
