BREAKING: Flight From London to Tel Aviv Diverted Amid Security Concerns

British Airways diverted a flight en route from London to Tel Aviv due to security concerns, according to reports.

Reuters reported the plane was diverting back to London due to the unfolding conflict on the ground in Israel. An airline spokesperson said: “Safety is always our highest priority and we’ve taken the decision to return our Tel Aviv flight to Heathrow.”

Unlike numerous global airlines halting their Israel services, British Airways, albeit with a revised schedule, persists in conducting some flights to Israel.

Flight BA165 was nearing Tel Aviv when rerouted, as per Flightradar.

The story is developing as further details on the diversion and its implications are awaited.
