March 17 (Reuters) – Air traffic in the United Arab Emirates returned to normal after temporary precautionary measures were lifted, state news agency WAM reported on Tuesday, citing the country’s General Civil Aviation Authority.
Earlier on Tuesday, the authority announced a temporary closure of the country’s airspace amid rapidly evolving regional security developments, after the defence ministry said it was responding to incoming missile and drone threats from Iran.
