El Paso Airport Halted For 10 Days Over Unspecified Security Threats
El Paso International Airport has grounded all flights due to “special security reasons,” as declared by the Federal Aviation Administration. This temporary flight restriction, encompassing El Paso and nearby Santa Teresa, New Mexico, commenced early Wednesday and is slated to conclude on February 21st. The restricted airspace is designated as national defense airspace, with protocols allowing for the use of deadly force against aircraft posing an imminent security threat.
