A number of Middle Eastern countries have closed their airspace due to strikes between Iran and Israel

The airspaces over Iran, Iraq, and Syria are completely clear of aircraft, with three planes departing from Israel.

This is reported by the Flightradar 24 portal.

Currently, there is not a single aircraft in the skies over Iran, Iraq, and Syria, which announced temporary closure of their airspace due to the exchange of strikes between Israel and Iran.

At the same time, three planes are currently departing from Israel, which also announced the closure of its airspace, including flights to Budapest and Athens. Another airliner is flying from Haifa to Eilat but is staying close to the airspace of Jordan, where a large concentration of aircraft has been recorded.

Following the launch of Iranian missiles at Israel on the night of June 8, Iraqi authorities announced the closure of the country's airspace for three days. Syria stated that Damascus airport would not send or receive flights for 12 hours, partly due to explosions from the interception of Iranian missiles in the skies over Damascus, the agency reports.
