Iran accuses Israel of distracting Flights from Lebani in the middle of growing tensions | News of the conflict
Hezbollah and Lebanese officials deny Israel’s claims about the use of Beirut’s group for arming of the group.
Iran accused Israel of disturbing the flights from Tehran to Beirut after an Iranian plane was denied permission to land in Libanon’s capital.
A spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry Esmaeil Baghaei said on Friday that Israel threatened a passenger plane transporting Lebanese nationals from Tehran “, which caused a disorder in normal land to Beirut Airport.”
He condemned the alleged Israeli threat as a violation of international law. He also invited the international organization of civil aviation and other world bodies “to stop the dangerous behavior of Israel against the safety and safety of civil aviation.”
Later on Friday, Iran banned Lebanese planes to return dozens of Lebanese nationals stranded in Iran, saying that it would not allow Lebanese flights to the land until his own flights were cleaned to land in Beirut.
Iranian ambassador to Beirut, Mojtaba Amani, said Iranian state television on Friday that Iran would allow planes to land only if they allow Iran flights to travel to Beirut.
“The request of the Lebanese government will surely be accepted, but provided they do not interfere with Iranian flights,” he said.
The conflict left dozens of Lebanese nationals stranded in Iran three days after attending a religious pilgrimage.
The Baghaei statement did not determine the nature of the threat attributed to Israel, but it came after the Israeli army spokesman claimed that the Iranian elite Quds of the Hezbollah was used by the Lebanese group of the Hezbollah flights to smuggle the funds for Beirut.
Hezbollah and Lebanese officials denied Israel’s claims that Beirut’s International Airport of Rafic Hariri was used to arrange a group.
Israel has repeatedly accused Hezbollah of using the only airport in Lebanon to switch weapons from Iran. The Israeli army hit the area last year during its war with the Lebanese armed group.
On Thursday, the Lebanese Air Force Administration said that “temporarily moved” some flights, including Iran, until February 18, because it implemented “additional security measures”.
This date coincides with the deadline for complete implementation of the fire interruption agreement between Israel and Hezbollah.
Late on Thursday, a crowd of Libanon’s supporters of Hezbollah blocked the Beirut Airport Airport and burned tires to protest about the decision.
