Gulf countries suspend flights to Peshawar

LAHORE: Airlines of Gulf countries have suspended flights to Peshawar due to “security reasons”, a private TV channel quoted Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) officials as saying on Thursday. The airlines are Qatar Airways, Gulf Airways and Etihad Airways, the channel said. The Peshawar airport was closed for all air traffic on June 17 due to the volatile law and order situation in the province and all Peshawar-bound flights were re-routed to Islamabad.
