PAKISTAN extended its airspace closure for all Indian-owned or Indian-operated airlines until 4:59 a.m. local time on June 24, the Pakistan Airports Authority said in a statement on Friday.

The restriction applies to “all aircraft registered, operated, owned, or leased by India” and includes Indian military aircraft, the authority said in a statement.

The move extends restrictions first imposed last month amid continuing tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbours.
