Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has canceled his planned visit to Azerbaijan on May 8 due to Turkey's closure of its airspace to Israeli aircraft. This development follows Turkey's decision to block Israeli flights, including the forfeiture of flight slots at Ben Gurion Airport by Turkish Airlines and Pegasus, effectively ending future flights between Turkey and Israel. The airspace restrictions have also affected previous Israeli officials, as in November when President Herzog's plane was denied passage through Turkish airspace. These actions reflect ongoing tensions between Turkey and Israel.
