Iran has resumed commercial flights from Imam Khomeini International Airport in Tehran, marking the first such operations since the onset of conflict with the US and Israel approximately two months ago. State-run television reported that flights began on Saturday, with initial routes to Istanbul, Muscat (Oman), and Medina (Saudi Arabia). Flight tracking service Flightradar24 confirmed that at least three flights to Istanbul took off on the morning of the resumption. This reopening of airspace comes in the wake of a ceasefire agreement with the US, which has temporarily halted hostilities between the two nations. The resumption of commercial flights could signify a potential thaw in diplomatic relations and a step towards normalcy in air travel for Iran.
