Emirates cancels flights to Iraq, Iran, Jordan for three days over ‘regional unrest’

Dubai-based Emirates says it has canceled flights to Iraq, Iran and Jordan for three days over “regional unrest” after an Iranian missile strike on Israel stoked fears of a wider war.

“Emirates is canceling all flights to/from Iraq (Basra and Baghdad), Iran (Tehran), and Jordan (Amman) on 4th and 5th October due to regional unrest,” says the airline.

Earlier today, Iran announced that flights had resumed after a brief suspension since the Tuesday attack.
