AUA resumes flights to Tel Aviv & Tehran
Austrian Airlines is resuming flights to Tel Aviv in Israel and Tehran in Iran. This was announced by AUA on Monday evening.
The two airports will be served again from next Thursday, September 5. However, there will initially be no overnight stays for crews on site, it was said.
Flights to Amman in Jordan and Erbil in Iraq have been operating again since August 27.
In consultation with the entire Lufthansa Group, to which the airline belongs, AUA had suspended flights to Tel Aviv and Tehran since the beginning of August. This was due to threats of retaliation by Iran and the Lebanese Hezbollah against Israel.
The head of the radical Islamic Palestinian organization Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, and a leading Hezbollah commander, Fuad Shukr, were killed shortly after each other in Tehran and Beirut at the end of July. Israel has neither confirmed nor denied its involvement in Haniyeh's death.
