Iran closes airspace

Odaily News According to the Jerusalem Post, Iran issued a NOTAM late Wednesday local time, announcing that all flights are prohibited from entering its airspace unless authorized. Flight tracking websites showed that airspace over Iran and Iraq was rapidly cleared of flights before the NOTAM was issued. A Western military official said on Wednesday: "All signals indicate that the U.S. is about to launch an attack, but this is also the consistent way of doing things for this administration, keeping everyone on high alert. Uncertainty itself is part of the strategy."
