As India-Pakistan tensions escalated, India launched Operation Sindoor, following which multiple airports across northern and western India were closed due to security concerns. On Monday, the Airports Authority of India (AAI) announced that the 32 airports that were closed have reopened now.

The announcement comes two days after the ceasefire was announced between the two nations. Pakistan, since the India strike, has continued to violate the ceasefire and also resorted to drone attacks in multiple Indian cities.

"Attention Flyers; reference notice issued for the temporary closure of 32 Airports for civil Aircraft operations till 05:29 hrs of 15 May 2025. It is informed that these Airports are now available for civil Aircraft operations with immediate effect," the Airports Authority of India (AAI) said.
