Israel Airports Authority Director General Sharon Kedmi has warned against US refuelling aircraft landing at Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport, as their arrival will lead to flight cancellations and delays, Iran’s state IRNA news agency reports.

“We are doing everything to avoid cancelling flights,” Kedmi is quoted as saying, adding that the airport has reached its maximum operational capacity and cannot accommodate one more refuelling plane. “There are American refuelers here and in other places. We are in contact with the Air Force, and everyone is doing their job.”
