IndiGo suspends all flight operations to and from Kuwait after the country shuts its airspace, following a drone strike that hits the airport’s passenger terminal amid heightened regional tensions. Both reports link the disruption to the broader context of an exchange of strikes involving Iran and the United States, which increases concern across the region. Kuwait’s authorities close the country’s airspace in the wake of the incident, prompting IndiGo to issue an advisory and stop flights until further notice. The suspension affects departures and arrivals connected to Kuwait, leading to travel disruptions for passengers with planned itineraries. The airline’s decision is presented as a safety and operational response to the airspace restrictions rather than a change in destination demand. Details on damage assessments, casualties, and the status of flight resumption are not provided in the cited coverage, but the immediate effect is a halt in IndiGo’s Kuwait-related routes due to the closed airspace.
