Qatar temporarily closes airspace: Civil aviation authority

Qatar's civil aviation authority said on Saturday it had temporarily closed the Gulf state's airspace and Qatar Airways said it had suspended all flights from Doha, after Israel and the United States launched strikes on Iran.

In a statement the authority "announced the temporary suspension of air traffic in Qatari airspace as part of a series of precautionary measures" and Qatar Airways said it "confirms the temporary suspension of its flights to, and from, Doha due to the closure of Qatari airspace."
