Germany’s Lufthansa airline group will resume flights to Tel Aviv next month, the company has said, a day after Israel and Hamas announced a Gaza ceasefire and hostage-prisoner exchange agreement, AFP reports.

“Flights to and from Tel Aviv will resume from February 1,” the group said in a statement.

However, it added that its suspensions of flights to Tehran and Beirut would remain in place until at least February 14 and 28 respectively . The Lufthansa group — whose carriers include SWISS, Austrian Airlines and Eurowings — has repeatedly modified its schedule in recent months due to the course of the conflict in the Middle East, as have other airlines.
