Air France has suspended flights to Tel Aviv after the biggest clashes between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah group since the start of the Gaza bombardment, AFP reports.

Air France, which usually runs a daily service to both cities, had already halted flights to Beirut between July 29 and August 15 but had kept flying to Tel Aviv.

Air France’s subsidiary Transavia, which serves both destinations, is also halting its flights, the spokesperson said.

Any resumption of services to the two destinations will depend on the result of a new assessment of the security situation, Air France said in a statement.
