The Lufthansa group of carriers continues to extend the suspension of its flight services to Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport by another week until June 22.

The Lufthansa group – whose carriers also include SWISS, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, and Eurowings – says that following a situation assessment, it has decided to further extend flight cancellations to and from Tel Aviv through June 22, from the previously announced date of June 15.

On May 4, the group of carriers joined a list of foreign airlines canceling flight services to Israel, after a ballistic missile from Yemen struck an area of Israel’s main international airport.
