Jordan closes airspace amid Israeli strikes on Iran

By AFP and ToI Staff 13 June 2025, 8:48 am Edit

Jordan’s aviation authority announces the closure of its airspace and grounds all flights after Israel carried out strikes on nuclear and military targets in Iran.

“The kingdom’s airspace is temporarily closed, and air traffic suspended for all aircraft — incoming, outgoing and in transit, as a precaution against any risks resulting from the regional escalation,” the authority says in a statement.

The Israel Defense Forces has said Iran has launched over 100 drones at Israel in the past hours.
