Pakistan has issued a NOTAM restricting its airspace to all Indian-registered aircraft and any aircraft operated, owned, or leased by Indian airlines or operators—including military flights. This is a significant escalation and marks the first direct restriction of this kind.

Should tensions continue to rise, we anticipate the potential for further airspace closures and broader restrictions impacting overflights to India by international operators.

Osprey Flight Solutions forecasted this development 24 hours in advance and elevated our airspace risk rating for Pakistan from Moderate to High. Our full analysis and forecast can be accessed here:
