Pakistan Extends Airspace Ban for Indian Aircraft Till Jan 23; India Likely to Reciprocate

• Pakistan has extended its airspace ban for Indian aircraft until January 23.
• The ban applies to all Indian-registered aircraft, including commercial and military flights, across Karachi and Lahore FIRs.
• This extension follows a previous ban that was set to expire on December 24.
• The initial ban was imposed in April after a terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam, which led to a conflict between the two nations.
• New Delhi is expected to reciprocate, as India already has a similar ban in place against Pakistan.
