Delta, the American airline, originally scheduled to restart flights to Israel in March, has delayed the plan until at least April 30 due to the ongoing conflict in the region.
In a press release, Delta stated that it is closely monitoring the security situation in Israel and is keeping Ben Gurion International Airport informed of its decisions.
"Our hearts go out to everyone impacted, and our staff is working to find safe alternatives for our customers," the statement read.
