Air France has announced an extension of its suspension of flights to Israel and Lebanon.

Air France stated that it is extending the suspension of its flights between Paris and Tel Aviv until October 15, according to French media reports citing an official company representative.

The suspension of flights between Paris and Beirut is also being extended, now lasting until October 26.

In late September, it was announced that Air France and its subsidiary, Transavia France, would suspend flights from Paris to both Beirut and Tel Aviv until October 8.

The decision was made due to the security situation in the Middle East. Several other international airlines have taken similar actions in response to the ongoing conditions.
