Jerusalem: US carriers United Airlines and Delta Air Lines, along with British Airways, have temporarily suspended their flights to Israel amid growing tensions in the region, Israel's state-owned Kan TV news reported on Thursday.
Delta said that its flights are suspended through Friday, "due to ongoing conflict in the region," while United did not specify dates.
