Kuwait has reopened its airspace to commercial traffic following a brief closure triggered by Iranian attacks on Thursday (June 11). This temporary suspension comes amid the escalating US-Israel-Iran conflict, which has increasingly spread across West Asia. Regional stability has been heavily impacted globally since a joint military exercise targeting Iran took shape on February 28.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/videos/us-iran-war-iran-targets-us-command-centre-in-jordan-middle-east-tensions-escalate-1781156511142/embed">https://www.wionews.com/videos/us-iran-war-iran-targets-us-command-centre-in-jordan-middle-east-tensions-escalate-1781156511142/embed</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;"Air traffic in Kuwaiti airspace has returned to normal," the Directorate General of Civil Aviation said in a statement, as quoted by news agency AFP. Earlier on Thursday, Kuwait said it would temporarily close its airspace from 4:50 am (0150 GMT).
