Flights at Israel’s Ramon Airport resumed on Wednesday after a brief suspension due to an earthquake near Eilat. The Geological Survey of Israel recorded a magnitude 4.5 earthquake occurring roughly 30 kilometers south of Eilat at 11:24 a.m. local time, prompting immediate safety measures.
As a precaution, operations at Ramon Airport were temporarily halted to conduct thorough safety inspections and infrastructure checks. After completing these evaluations, authorities confirmed that the airport was safe, allowing it to return to full operational status.
Despite the impact on Ramon Airport, Israel’s primary international airport, Ben Gurion near Tel Aviv, was not affected by the earthquake, continuing its operations without interruption.
