Baghdad announces the reopening of its airspace and the resumption of flights, according to state news agency INA, citing the Iraqi Transportation Ministry, following a brief suspension attributed to regional tensions.

Israel launched a wave of retaliatory strikes against Iran early this morning, with the military saying the “precise strikes” by the Israeli Air Force targeted strategic military sites — specifically drone and ballistic missile manufacturing and launch sites, as well as air defense batteries.

Iran also announced the resumption of all flights this morning, following a brief suspension.
