Qatar Airways announces ‘limited’ flights to and from Doha | War between the United States and Israel against Iran News

The airline says it will operate a limited number of flights starting March 18 between the Qatari capital and dozens of destinations.

Qatar Airways has announced a limited flight schedule to and from Qatar’s capital, Doha, as the US-Israel war against Iran affects air travel in the region.

The airline said on Monday it would operate a limited number of flights from Wednesday until March 28.

Flights will operate to and from dozens of cities in Africa, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, North and South America and Asia Pacific.

“As Qatar Airways scheduled flight operations are still temporarily suspended due to the closure of Qatari airspace, we want you to know that we are doing everything we can to assist you on your journey and reunite you with your family and loved ones,” the airline said.

“Qatar Airways will resume operations once the Qatar Civil Aviation Authority announces the full and safe reopening of Qatari airspace.”

Air travel in several Middle Eastern countries has been disrupted since the United States and Israel launched a military attack against Iran on February 28.

The US-Israeli attacks have prompted retaliatory Iranian missile and drone strikes across the region, including several Gulf countries that serve as major air transport hubs.

Continued airspace restrictions have left many travelers stranded in the region with no means to return home as the war continues.

The United Arab Emirates, which has been hardest hit by the Iranian attacks, said on Monday that flights were gradually resuming at Dubai International Airport after a “drone-related incident” that caused a fire in a nearby fuel tank.

In a statement, the airport said flights to and from Dubai were gradually resuming to “select destinations.”

Authorities also said they had contained the fire and no injuries were reported.
