In a statement, the European Commission and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) described “a general intensification of airstrikes and a degradation of the security situation.”

They issued an official recommendation “not to operate within the airspaces of Lebanon and Israel at all flight levels.”

This recommendation is effective until October 31, 2024, but the Conflict Zone Information Bulletin (CZIB) “may be reviewed earlier and adjusted or withdrawn,” the statement added.

“EASA will continue to closely monitor the situation to assess whether there is an increase or decrease in risks for EU aircraft operators as a result of the evolving threat,” the agency stated.
