Flights in and out of Ben Gurion Airport resume after half-hour delay

Flights in and out of Ben Gurion International Airport are suspended for approximately half an hour this evening, an aviation official says.

The spokesperson for the Israel Aviation Authority says the take offs and landings were delayed by approximately half an hour, but refuses to say what prompted the measure.

The Ynet new site reports that the delay was requested by the Israeli Air Force.

The Israeli military does not immediately comment on the matter.
