Amid growing speculation about the possible resumption of flights from Kuwait International Airport, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation has issued a firm official statement denying all circulating claims, confirming that the airport remains closed since February 28 due to ongoing regional political and security conditions.

The official spokesperson, Abdullah Al Rajhi, clarified that a widely shared announcement on social media, allegedly linked to an airline, claiming the restart of operations is completely inaccurate, stressing that no official approvals have been granted for flights to resume at this stage.

He emphasized that the authority is closely monitoring misinformation and urged the public to rely solely on verified official sources, warning against the spread of unconfirmed news, while reaffirming the authority’s commitment to transparency and timely updates through its official communication channels.

The continued closure of Kuwaiti airspace is part of precautionary measures designed to ensure the highest levels of safety and operational security for both passengers and aviation infrastructure, particularly given the sensitive regional environment.

Authorities also revealed that Kuwait International Airport previously faced multiple drone attacks that caused significant damage to key infrastructure, including radar systems and fuel storage facilities, reinforcing the necessity of maintaining strict safety measures until conditions fully stabilize.
