Airlines should still avoid airspace over Iran, EU agency warns

The EU aviation safety agency EASA has advised airlines to continue avoiding airspace over Iran, Iraq, and Lebanon, extending its conflict-zone advisory until July 1. This precaution comes despite the recent US-Iran deal, as EASA highlights the potential for short-term violations and the ongoing instability in the region. The warning underscores the need for heightened caution in a part of the world still fraught with conflict, reflecting the broader geopolitical tensions that continue to affect international air travel.
