Air France and its subsidiary, Transavia, anticipate resuming service to Beirut on Thursday after suspending their flights since July 29 due to heightened tensions in the West Asia region, the French airline announced on Wednesday.

"At this stage, and subject to the evolution of the security situation at destination, the airline plans to resume its flights between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Beirut on Thursday, August 15, 2024," Air France stated in a press release.

It also added that "the continuation of operations will be subject to a daily assessment of the local situation."

Air France first suspended its flights to the Lebanese capital after "Israel" blamed Hezbollah for a deadly strike that killed 12 people and injured dozens in the Druze town of Majdal Shams in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, an allegation that the Lebanese Resistance group categorically denies.

Following the incident, Israeli occupation forces launched an aerial aggression that targeted Beirut's southern suburb, killing five civilians, as well as top Hezbollah commander Sayyed Fouad Shokor (Hajj Mohsen) and Iranian advisor Milad Bidi.

The Lebanese group has vowed retaliation and made it clear that the response to the Israeli assassination of Hajj Mohsen is inevitable but did not specify a time.

On the other hand, the German airline group Lufthansa announced on Monday that it is extending the suspension of flights to Tel Aviv, Tehran, Beirut, Amman, and Erbil until August 21 due to ongoing tensions in the region.

Lufthansa also stated that it would continue to avoid using Iranian and Iraqi airspace until August 21, extending a previous suspension that was set to end on August 13.

Several other airlines have also recently adjusted their flight schedules in the region.
