Decision on Israel from 10 international airlines

10 international airlines have canceled their flights to Israel citing security concerns.

According to a report by Israel's official television channel KAN, 10 foreign airlines, including Air France and Transavia, have canceled their flights to Israel.

While 52 flights to Israel have been completely canceled, hundreds of others have been postponed.

The report noted that Air France, which was among the few foreign companies continuing flights to Israel, has also canceled its round-trip flights to Tel Aviv.

Since the end of July, approximately 20 international airlines have canceled their flights to Israel, citing the possibility of a full-scale war breaking out in the region.

The Israeli army had announced that it launched a "preemptive strike" on Lebanon, claiming that Hezbollah was planning to target Israel.

Following this, Hezbollah announced that it had launched a retaliation against Israel in response to the assassination of its senior commander Fuad Shukr in Beirut on July 30.

Hezbollah stated that it targeted Israeli military positions with a series of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as well as 320 rockets during the retaliatory attack.

The Israeli army claimed that about 100 fighter jets participated in the strikes it carried out on Lebanon this morning and that 40 missile launchers positioned to strike central Israel were hit.
