British Airways plans to resume flights from London to Tel Aviv on April 5, following a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Palestinian movement Hamas.
Israeli news portal Arutz Sheva reported on Monday that the airline announced in Oct. 2024 that it would suspend flights to Tel Aviv until the end of March 2025.
The airline will initially operate one flight a day, and later the frequency will increase to two flights a day, the news portal said.
Israeli media reported on Friday that another low-cost UK carrier, easyJet, would resume flights to Tel Aviv on June 1.
Israel and Hamas, with the mediation of Qatar, Egypt and the United States, agreed on January 15 to a 42-day ceasefire and declared their intention to finally end the hostilities that have claimed the lives of 46,900 Palestinians and about 1,500 Israelis over 15 months.
The hostilities spread to Lebanon and Yemen provoking an exchange of missile strikes between Israel and Iran.
The first stage provides for partial exchange of prisoners, the withdrawal of Israeli troops to the Gaza borders and humanitarian aid. The second and third stages are yet to be agreed upon.
