The support announcement comes as air travel across large parts of the world remains severely affected for the third day in a row. Escalating tensions linked to the war in Iran have forced airlines to suspend or reroute flights across the Middle East.
Thousands of passengers have been stranded worldwide as airlines avoided regional airspace and major airports halted operations.
Several Indian and international carriers, including Air India, IndiGo, and Qatar Airways, extended the suspension of flights on Monday due to the ongoing conflict. Operations continued to be impacted as multiple countries in the region announced partial or complete airspace closures.
