Air traffic in the United Arab Emirates has returned to normal, according to state media reports. Earlier on Tuesday, the General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) announced a brief closure of the country's airspace due to changing security situations in the region. However, the GCAA has confirmed that air navigation has resumed normal operations throughout the UAE's airspace, as reported by the state news agency WAM. The GCAA also highlighted that they will continue to monitor the situation in real-time to ensure the highest safety standards for air travel.
