Pakistan has announced the closure of specific portions of Karachi and Lahore airspace for a limited time each day during May, citing security reasons, news agency PTI, attributing it to a media report, said on Thursday.

The announcement comes amid heightened tensions between the two nations following a terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Област Пахалгам, при който уби 26 цивилни, на 22 април

Доклади също се казва, че Исламабад твърди, че има достоверни доказателства, че Индия се подготвя да започне военни действия в рамките на следващите 24 до 36 часа. 

“The restricted airspace will be closed daily from 4:00 am to 8:00 am local time between May 1 and May 31,” Express Tribune said, quoting an official notice.

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) said the closure will not significantly disrupt commercial flight operations, as aircraft will be rerouted via alternative flight paths during the restricted hours, it каза.
