Air India Ltd. suspended flights across major parts of its international network as the carrier, still reeling from a deadly plane crash earlier this month, joins major global airlines in grappling with extensive disruptions from the Middle East conflict.

India’s national carrier has stopped all flights to and from Europe, the east coast of North America and the Middle East, it said in a post on X. Some flights heading for India were forced to return to their point of origin or were being re-routed, it said.
