The General Union of Air Controllers announced the suspension of air traffic on Wednesday in all airports from 9.00 to 13.00 local time, which resulted in the suspension of domestic and international flights.
All domestic and international airliners suspended their flights due to the sit-in, except for air ambulance, hajj and military flights.
The air traffic controllers announced that, after their sit-in Wednesday for 4 hours, they will begin to restrict air traffic for 30 minutes between each flight per day, and hold the Ministry of Finance responsible for the safety of air traffic.
These measures come as a protest against the Ministry of Finance's failure to implement the unified salary system and pay the financial dues for air traffic controllers.
