Imam Khomeini International Airport, one of Iran's largest air hubs, resumed some international flights this morning, April 25. The first departures from the capital were bound for Muscat, Istanbul and Medina in Saudi Arabia,reports Iran’s semiofficial Mehr news agency.
Iranian airspace has remained largely closed since its conflict with the US and Israel began on February 28, leaving passenger flights suspended for nearly two months. On April 8, Pakistan announced that the US and Iran had reached a conditional two‑week ceasefire, which Donald Trump said he agreed to extend on April 21 while awaiting a proposal from Iran for further talks.
Meanwhile, Mashhad airport in the country’s northeast—serving Iran’s second‑largest city—had already reopened earlier in the week.
