Iran’s Civil Aviation Organization (CAO) announced on Sunday that all flights to and from the country will be cancelled until Monday morning, as reported by the semi-official Mehr news agency.
The flight restrictions will be in effect from 9:00 p.m. local time (1730 GMT) on Sunday until 6:00 a.m. (0230 GMT) Monday. CAO spokesman Jafar Yazarlou cited “operational limitations” as the reason but did not provide further details. He assured that all affected passengers would receive reimbursement.
This announcement follows a missile attack by Iran on Israel earlier in the week, which led to a previous flight cancellation until Thursday morning, citing security concerns in the West Asia region. On Thursday, Yazarlou stated that flight restrictions were lifted after conditions were deemed safe.
On Tuesday, Iran launched approximately 180 missiles at Israel, claiming the action was in retaliation for the assassination of key figures, including Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.
In response, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that Tehran had made a “big mistake” and would “pay for it” while Tehran said any retaliation would be met with “vast destruction”, raising fears of a wider war.
“Iran made a big mistake tonight – and it will pay for it,” Netanyahu said at the outset of a political-security meeting, according to a statement.
As US expressed full backing for its long-time ally Israel, Iran’s armed forces said direct intervention by Israel’s supporters against Tehran would provoke a “strong attack” from Iran on their “bases and interests” in the region.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps said the assault was in retaliation for Israeli killings of militant leaders and aggression in Lebanon against the Iran-backed armed movement Hezbollah and in Gaza.
Fears that Iran and the U.S. would be drawn into a regional war have risen with Israel’s intensifying assault on Lebanon in the past two weeks, including the start of a ground operation there on Monday, and its year-old conflict in the Gaza Strip.
In its attack on Tuesday, Iran fired more than 180 ballistic missiles at Israel, Israel said. Alarms sounded across Israel and explosions could be heard in Jerusalem and the Jordan River valley. Israelis piled into bomb shelters and reporters on state television lay flat on the ground during live broadcasts.
Iran’s forces used hypersonic Fattah missiles for the first time, and 90% of its missiles successfully hit their targets in Israel, the Revolutionary Guards said.
Israeli air defences were activated and most missiles were intercepted “by Israel and a defensive coalition led by the United States,” Israeli Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said in a video on X, adding: “Iran’s attack is a severe and dangerous escalation.”
Central Israel received “a small number” of hits and there were other strikes in southern Israel, he said. The Israeli military published video of a school in the central city of Gadera that was heavily damaged by an Iranian missile.
No injuries were reported in Israel, but one man was killed in the occupied West Bank, authorities there said.
U.S. Navy warships fired about a dozen interceptors against Iranian missiles headed toward Israel, the Pentagon said.
 President Joe Biden expressed full U.S. support for Israel and described Iran’s attack as “ineffective.” He said there was an active discussion about how Israel would respond, and he would confer with Netanyahu.
Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic candidate for U.S. president, backed Biden’s stance and said the U.S. would not hesitate to defend its interests against Iran.
