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 умъртви 26 цивилни, на 22 април

Доклади също се споделя, че Исламабад твърди, че има достоверни доказателства, че Индия се приготвя да стартира военни дейности в границите на идващите 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 сподели.
