Iranian official media said on Sunday that the authorities had lifted the restrictions they had previously imposed on flights after confirming that flight conditions were safe.
A spokesman for the Iranian Civil Aviation Organization had said, earlier on Sunday, that flights from Iranian airports would be canceled starting from nine o’clock on Sunday evening until six o’clock on Monday morning, local time.
The media said, 6 hours before the end of the scheduled time for canceling flights, that “after the Civil Aviation Organization confirmed that flight conditions are favorable and safe, all announced restrictions have been removed and airlines are allowed to resume their operations.”
The media quoted a spokesman for the Civil Aviation Organization as saying that the flights were initially canceled due to operational restrictions, without providing further details.
Iran imposed restrictions on flights last Tuesday when it launched the missile attack on Israel.
Earlier, the Iranian President said Masoud Bazeshkian The missile attack on Israel at the beginning of this month was aimed at curbing its brutality and preventing it from expanding its crimes in the region, according to his description.
He added that the operation was carried out in accordance with the United Nations Charter by striking military targets only, saying that “Western countries and America are asking us to exercise restraint instead of condemning the terrorist crimes of the Zionist entity.”
He explained that Tehran refrained from an immediate response to the assassination of the martyr Ismail Haniyeh Hoping that the ceasefire efforts will succeed.
Iranian Army Commander Abdul Rahim al-Moussawi also said that Tehran does everything it says, and may at one time bear what he called “the bitterness of restraint,” stressing that it will take action and respond when it is subjected to attacks.
He stressed that any response from Israel to the attack that targeted it on Tuesday will be met with a stronger and more destructive response.
