Suspension takes effect for Iranian carriers
The United Arab Emirates suspended flights operated by Iranian airlines to and from the country effective September 24 and until further notice. The General Civil Aviation Authority attributed the decision to US restrictions affecting services provided to Iranian carriers. The stated scope covers Iranian-operated flights, not every flight between the two countries or services operated by UAE airlines. Authorities did not specify conditions or a timetable for lifting the suspension.
