    Lufthansa Extends Beirut Flight Suspension Amid High Middle East Tensions

    Lufthansa previously said it was avoiding all Iraqi and Iranian airspace (Representational).

    Frankfurt:

    German airline giant Lufthansa said Friday it was extending a suspension of flights to Beirut until September 30 and to Tel Aviv and Tehran until September 2 with regional tensions still high.

    Previously suspended services to Amman in Jordan and Erbil in Iraq will however resume on August 27, with flights to the latter crossing a “northern corridor” of Iraqi airspace.

    The airline previously said it was avoiding all Iraqi and Iranian airspace.
