Israeli authorities have announced that Ben Gurion International Airport will reopen in an 'extremely limited' format following a ceasefire agreement between Israel and the United States. The airport is expected to gradually expand operations depending on the security situation, with only Israeli carriers expected to resume flights. Israel's Population and Immigration Authority estimates that nearly 300,000 Israelis have travelled abroad in the past three months and have not yet returned, with 172,000 of them in the last month. El Al Israel Airlines (ELAL.TA) has halted the sale of tickets until March 21 to allow its customers whose flights to be accommodated once the airspace opens.
