Tehran Warns Regional Hubs Against Blocking Iranian Flights
Iran has threatened to disrupt the operations of neighboring airports if they comply with US pressure to block Iranian flights. The warning comes as Iranian carriers face tighter sanctions, resulting in cancellations and lost access to some destinations. Despite the restrictions, Iranian airlines continue to operate flights to countries like China and Russia. The US Treasury Department has imposed sanctions on Iranian airlines, accusing them of using their aviation industry to transport weapons and personnel. The situation was first reported by AeroTime.
