New Delhi, May 4 -- Air India has suspended its flights to and from Tel Aviv until May 6 due to safety concerns after a ballistic missile fired by the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen hit Ben Gurion Airport on Sunday morning, injuring six people.

The airline's flight AI139 from Delhi to Tel Aviv was diverted to Abu Dhabi, where it landed safely. The flight will soon return to Delhi, according to an Air India spokesperson.

After the incident, Air India announced a one-time waiver for customers with valid tickets booked between May 4 and May 6, allowing them to reschedule their flights or receive full refunds for cancellations.
