Jordan halts flights to Beirut
Jordanian Airlines Halts Operations in Beirut Amid Rising Tensions
The Jordanian Civil Aviation Authority has announced the suspension of Jordanian Airlines’ operations in Beirut until further notice. This decision was made in response to the escalating regional tensions and is aimed at ensuring the safety and security of civil aviation in the area.
Meanwhile, in Lebanon, the Israeli army has carried out a series of airstrikes in various regions, including southern cities, Bekaa, and Baalbek. These attacks have resulted in a tragic toll, with the Lebanese Ministry of Health confirming that 274 people, including children and women, have been killed, and over 1,000 others have been injured.
The ongoing violence has prompted a significant wave of migration from the affected regions to the capital, Beirut, and the northern areas of the country. The Lebanese Ministry of Education has taken the step to suspend all educational activities nationwide, while the Ministry of Interior has opened schools in the southern areas to provide temporary shelter for those displaced by the attacks.
As the situation continues to unfold, it is essential for all parties involved to prioritize the protection of civilian lives and work towards finding a peaceful resolution to the conflict. The international community must also play a role in de-escalating tensions and promoting stability in the region.
