Airports across India that were closed during the recent military conflict with Pakistan are now being reopened, after both countries agreed to a ceasefire.
The airspace restrictions were put in place after Indian forces carried out strikes on nine terrorist sites in Pakistan on May 7, under Operation Sindoor. This led to a four-day military standoff between the two nation.
