At midnight, three international flights en route to Bangladesh were rerouted due to heightened airspace security concerns following a missile strike near the India-Pakistan border. Group Captain Muhammed Kamrul Islam, executive director of Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, confirmed that the civilian aircraft were advised to avoid the affected airspace as a precaution.
Among the diverted flights, a Turkish Airlines flight (TK 712/713) made an unscheduled landing in Muscat, while a Jazeera Airways flight (531/532) was redirected to Dubai. Another Jazeera Airways flight (533/534) was diverted to Kuwait.
Airport officials stated that these flights, after being rerouted, resumed their journey to Dhaka early this morning as air traffic gradually returned to normal along adjusted routes. The incident underscores ongoing concerns over regional security and the impact on international air travel in the area.
