Ethiopian Airlines suspends flights to neighbouring Eritrea

Ethiopian Airlines said it has suspended flights to neighbouring Eritrea, citing unspecified difficult operating conditions, Reuters reported.

Eritrea had previously said it would suspend all Ethiopian Airlines flights at the end of this month.

Flights from Ethiopia to Eritrea had resumed in 2018 after two decades, following a peace deal and resumption of diplomatic relations between the two neighbours that earned Ethiopia’s Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed a Nobel peace prize a year later.
