An ongoing strike by air traffic controllers in France generates more travel disruptions in Europe. The air traffic was reduced to a minimum over certain sectors, and flights to bigger  French airports had to be cancelled due to a lack of ATC capacity.

This comes after the events of the previous month, which also affected air traffic in the Middle East due to the recently fought conflict between Iran and Israel. As a result, many airspaces in the Region had to be closed to civilian traffic, leading to long detours and flight cancellations.

The French strike is expected to last until tomorrow, the 5th, but its repercussions may extend over a longer period.
