Air travel across the Middle East is
0:02
facing serious disruption as the ongoing
0:05
regional conflict continues to affect
0:07
the skies. Several airlines have reduced
0:10
their operations and dozens of flights
0:12
have been cancelled across the Gulf
0:15
region due to airspace restrictions and
0:18
safety concern.
0:21
Airports that normally serve as major
0:23
global transits hubs are now operating
0:26
on limited schedules, creating
0:28
uncertainty for travelers and airlines
0:30
alike. The disruption is not only
0:33
affecting the Middle East, but also
0:35
causing travel delays around the world.
0:39
Many international flights that normally
0:41
pass through the region are being
0:44
rerouted or delayed, putting pressure on
0:46
the global aviation network.
0:50
Avationian authorities and airlines are
0:52
urging passengers to check their flight
0:54
status before heading to the airport as
0:57
schedules continue to change rapidly.
1:01
Industry experts say the situation is
1:03
placing significant pressure on the
1:05
aviation sector which is still
1:08
recovering from previous global travel
1:10
disruptions.
1:12
Airlines are closely monitoring the
1:14
security situation and adjusting routes
1:17
to ensure passenger safety while trying
1:20
to maintain essential connections
1:22
between the continents. For more updates

>> We must unite now. We must have one
1:47
army. We must have one currency. We must
1:51
have one foreign policy. We must be
1:55
united.
1:58
And I can hear the Osagia for saying I
2:03
do not want to be the leader of that
2:05
country. I simply want unity. And I'm
2:08
saying that we must leave here with one
2:10
united government.
