Flights resume at Imam Khomeini International Airport in Tehran

On June 9, 2026, operations at Tehran's Imam Khomeini International Airport returned to normal following a temporary suspension of flights. The suspension, which occurred between the night of Sunday and Monday, was caused by Israeli airstrikes. Airport spokesperson Javad Salehi Artimani confirmed that all services have been restored. This incident follows a period of heightened regional tension. The airport had previously resumed normal operations in April after a weeks-long closure resulting from a conflict that began on February 28, 2026. Reports from Iranian news agencies MEHR and FARS characterized the event as a return to operational normality. The conflict is described in the reports as an American-Israeli military offensive against the Islamic Republic.
