The Dutch KLM airline said Flight KL461, which was scheduled to depart Amsterdam for Tel Aviv overnight, has been canceled. The overnight flight scheduled for Saturday was also called off. As of now, other airlines flying to and from Israel are maintaining their regular schedules.

Separately, the Lufthansa Group's decision from January 15 to operate flights to and from Tel Aviv as daytime flights only has been extended through Saturday, January 31, 2026, inclusive. The change is intended to allow flight crews to return to their home bases without overnight stays in Israel.

In addition, Lufthansa Flight LH694, which was scheduled to depart Frankfurt for Tel Aviv, has also been canceled.
