Delhi Airport issues passenger advisory as flight schedules impacted amid Iran-Israel tensions

Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport has issued a passenger advisory as some international flight schedules have been impacted due to changing airspace conditions over Iran, Iraq, and neighboring regions. Despite these disruptions, overall airport operations in Delhi are continuing smoothly.

The advisory comes amid heightened tensions in the Middle East following Israeli airstrikes across Iran late Thursday night. These strikes, described by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) as a “preemptive, precise, combined offensive,” targeted key Iranian military and nuclear-related facilities. Israeli officials stated that the operation was based on new intelligence indicating Iran was close to achieving a significant nuclear breakthrough, which they claimed posed an imminent threat to regional and global security.

Passengers traveling internationally, especially on routes that typically cross over the affected airspace, may experience delays or changes in flight paths. While the extent of disruptions varies by airline, travelers are being urged to stay in close contact with their respective carriers for the most accurate and timely updates regarding their flight status.
