The escalating situation in the Middle East has led to the cancellation of two flights between Albania and Israel. 

According to data from the official website of Rinas International Airport, two flights from Tel Aviv to Tirana and one flight from Tirana to Tel Aviv have been canceled. It is learned that one of the planes from Tel Aviv was supposed to arrive in Tirana at 15:40 and the other at 16:20, but both have been canceled.

Meanwhile, a flight from Tirana to Tel Aviv was scheduled for 17:20, but it has also been canceled. Meanwhile, another flight from Rinas to Tel Aviv is scheduled for late evening at 23:30, but it will most likely be canceled like the others.

Israel's Foreign Ministry has also ordered the closure of all diplomatic missions and the suspension of consular services worldwide, including the embassy in Albania.

The situation in the Middle East has become increasingly uncertain, as in addition to Israeli attacks on facilities in Iran, diplomatic efforts and international concerns about the possible escalation of the conflict have increased. This has created uncertainty in international flights and air transport, including those connecting Albania with Israel.

Under these conditions, airline authorities and airlines advise passengers to check flight status before departure and to make arrangements for any changes or refunds in the event that flights are canceled.
