Air India Cancels Israel Flights Amid ‘State Of War’

New Delhi: Air India has cancelled its flight to and from Israel after a ‘state of war’ was declared following the Hamas attacks from Palestine on Saturday.

“AI139 from Delhi to Tel Aviv on 07 October 2023 and the return flight AI140 from Tel Aviv to Delhi have been cancelled in the interests and safety of our guests and crew. Passengers are being extended all support, as per their requirements,” an Air India spokesperson said.

Indian citizens have been advised to stay vigilant and follow safety protocols.

Around 70 people reportedly lost their lives killed after the Hamas launched around 5,000 rockets from Gaza.

Israel hit back hard with the army launching ‘Operation Iron Swords’ against Hamas militants.

Around 200 people have been killed and over 1,600 wounded in the Palestinian enclave of Gaza during Israel’s retaliation, reported Al Jazeera.
