Jordan and Iraq on Friday (June 13, 2025) announced the closure of their airspace and grounded all flights after Israel’s attack on Iran, with Amman vowing it would not allow any violations of its airspace.
“The kingdom’s airspace is temporarily closed, and air traffic suspended for all aircraft — incoming, outgoing and in transit, as a precaution against any risks resulting from the regional escalation,” the Jordanian civil aviation authority said in a statement.
“Jordan has not and will not allow any violation of its airspace, reaffirming that the Kingdom will not be a battleground for any conflict,” government spokesperson Mohammad Momani told AFP.
Jordan, which borders Israel, intercepted multiple drones and missiles fired by Iran at Israel in October 2024.
Iraq, which borders Iran, also closed its airspace on Friday.
“The ministry of transport closes Iraqi airspace and suspends air traffic at all Iraqi airports,” the Iraq News Agency reported.
