Tehran’s international airport suspends all incoming flights after Iranian missile strikes on Israel, local media says.

“The civil aviation authority announced the suspension of all flights bound for the airport until further notice,” says Iranian press agency Mehr — the latest closure for Khomeini International Airport, one of two serving the capital, which had only reopened in April after being shut for weeks over the Middle East war.
