The Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, has said that international flights in and out of the country may resume before October.
Sirika revealed this in a tweet while dismissing reports the resumption date has been set.
International flights have been suspended in the country since March 23 in a bid to contain the spread of the COVID-19.
His tweet reads
”International Flight resumption date is not October. NAMA just issued a routine 90 day Notices to Airmen (NOTAM). In liaison with Health, Foreign Affairs & PTF COVID-19, we will announce the agreed date, regardless of the ban by Europe, UAE etc. May be earlier than October.”

Domestic flights resumed in June after they were banned in March.
