Transportation Ministry Says Ben Gurion Airport Is Operating Normally

The Transportation Ministry said Ben Gurion Airport was operating normally Saturday night and that there was no change to the flight schedule despite heightened Israeli readiness over possible renewed U.S. strikes on Iran. The ministry said the airport would continue routine operations unless authorities issue a new instruction. The Israel Airports Authority's live board was updating at 21:10 IDT and displayed active arrivals and departures. The clarification followed media reports of increased military alert, while Home Front Command guidance remained unchanged.
