May 7, 2025 – Several airports in India have suspended operations owing to the ongoing situation in the wake of India’s attack on terror camps located within Pakistan and POK (Pakistan Occupied Kashmir) early this morning. No commercial aircraft activity was detected by flight trackers north of Delhi, which is home to several of the critical airports along the India-Pakistan border.

A majority of the international flights overflying have made route diversion and are steering clear of the Pakistani airspace. These include Emirates, Qatar Airways, Turkish Airlines, Finnair, Saudia, Air Arabia and Mahan Air. Screenshots from FlightRadar 24 shows  there are no active flights on the north-western border of India.
