El Al Suspends Flights to Moscow After Russian Air Defense System Downs Azerbaijan Plane, Killing 38
Dec 26, 2024, 05:26 PM
El Al, Israel's national airline, has suspended all flights to Moscow for the coming week due to developments in Russian airspace. This decision follows the downing of an Azerbaijan Airlines plane near Aktau, Kazakhstan, which is believed to have been caused by a Russian air defense system, resulting in the deaths of 38 passengers. The incident has raised concerns about the safety of Russian airspace. El Al's suspension of flights is a precautionary measure, with the airline planning to reassess the situation next week to determine whether to resume operations on the Tel Aviv-Moscow route.
