Air France, Transavia say Beirut flights suspended until Saturday

Air France and low-cost carrier Transavia France say their flights between Paris and Beirut will remain suspended until the weekend due to the “security situation” in Lebanon.

Both carriers stopped servicing the route on Monday, a day after Israel vowed to retaliate following Hezbollah rocket fire from Lebanon that killed 12 children in the Golan Heights. Flights will now remain grounded until Saturday, they say.

German carrier Lufthansa has suspended flights until August 5.
