SEVERAL airlines have resumed their routes to Israel, but the aviation industry is still cautious due to ongoing conflicts between Israel and Hamas, reports London's Air Cargo News.

According to an October 12 service alert, FedEx has reinstated its international inbound and outbound services to and from Israel.

They follow local authority instructions for pick-up and delivery services, operating where it is safe and feasible. FedEx had previously suspended these services in an update on October 9.

Similarly, UPS has resumed its international service to Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv per a service alert on its regional website for Israel.

However, they note that ground services in South Israel are still disrupted.

DHL Express flights are also operating in and out of Israel, as stated by DHL Group.

They express their concern for the recent conflict and emphasize the safety of their employees and their commitment to closely monitor and adapt their operations as needed.

Please note that the status of these services may change over time, so travelers and shippers should stay updated with the latest information from these companies.
