ISLAMABAD The Pakistan Airports Authority (PAA) said on Friday that it has prolonged its airspace embargo for another month for all aircraft registered and operated in India, including military aircraft.
A recent NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) states that the ban prevents military flights, Indian-registered aircraft, and Indian commercial airlines from accessing Pakistani airspace.
After New Delhi suspended the crucial Indus Water Treaty amid heightened bilateral tensions following the fatal Pahalgam incident in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), Pakistan tit-for-tat restricted its airspace for Indian flights.
India closed its airspace to Pakistani flights on April 30 in response to Pakistan’s action. On May 23, the original limitation on Pakistan was extended for an additional month.
