India Closes Airspace to Pakistan After Pahalgam Attack

May 02, 2025 09:50 AM IST | By Team Kalkine Media

India has shut its airspace to Pakistani-registered aircraft from May 1 to May 23, 2025, in a strong response to the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people. This move follows Pakistan’s earlier ban on Indian carriers, further straining diplomatic and aviation ties. The action forms part of India’s wider countermeasures, including:

• Suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty

• Revocation of Pakistani visas

• Shutdown of the Attari-Wagah border

• Ban on 16 Pakistani YouTube channels, including partial blocks on high-profile figures like Shoaib Akhtar

International flights are now facing rerouting and delays, and officials suggest more restrictions—like a potential ban on Pakistani ships at Indian ports—may follow. Stay tuned to Kalkine Media for the latest on this fast-developing situation.
