Turkiye’s national carrier has announced a ban on Israeli and Iranian nationals boarding flights to Syria’s capital, Damascus, in accordance with guidelines ordered by the new Syrian government.

This was reported by the Turkish media.

Earlier this week, Turkish Airlines announced its plans to relaunch flights to Damascus from 23 January on a schedule of three flights per week, in a decision to resume operations in Syria after 13 years of conflict.

Amid that resumption in operations and the reopening of airports in Syria, however, the new Syrian authorities – who took power after the rebel takeover and the toppling of the Assad regime last month – have reportedly implemented a new set of guidelines for passengers arriving in the country on international flights.

In a statement published on its website on Thursday, Turkish Airlines stated that “In accordance with recent decisions taken by the Syrian Arab Republic authorities, certain rules have been established for passengers entering Syria.” The carrier revealed that “Citizens of all countries except Israel and Iran are permitted to enter the country.”
