France did not close its airspace to American aircraft, as U.S. President Donald Trump claims.
This was reported by BFMTV, citing a source in military circles.
The channel's source said that the conditions for aircraft landing remain unchanged. Only transport aircraft are permitted to land at the bases in Istres and Avord.
Earlier, Trump wrote on the social network Truth Social that France had closed its skies to American aircraft heading to Israel. The head of the White House promised that the United States would remember this move.
