ITA Airways has announced the temporary suspension of flights to and from Tel Aviv, joining a growing list of airlines that have canceled services to Israel due to security concerns. The Italian flag carrier made this decision in response to the geopolitical developments in the Middle East, prioritizing the safety of its passengers and crews.

The suspension, effective from August 1 to August 6, is a precautionary measure as the situation in the region remains fluid and constantly evolving. Passengers are advised to stay informed about the status of their flights before heading to the airport.
