Spain Expands Airspace Ban to U.S. War Flights Over Iran Conflict

Spain expanded its airspace ban to block all U.S. military aircraft involved in the Iran war from entering Spanish airspace, extending restrictions from two bases (Rota and Morón) to the entire country. Officials say the move aims to avoid escalation and reflects public opposition to the war, with emergency flights exempt; the policy could complicate U.S. logistics due to Spain’s strategic location along key flight routes.
