Iran has resumed flights to Moscow after a two-month suspension caused by the war, according to reporting attributed to IRNA and other recent coverage on the reopening of Iranian air services. The move comes as the country gradually restores international flight operations that were halted during the conflict.
The resumption follows Iran’s earlier restart of commercial flights from Imam Khomeini International Airport in Tehran after a 56-day suspension. State media reported that flights to destinations including Istanbul, Muscat and Medina had already resumed, marking the first stage of the wider restoration of air travel.
Recent reports said the Iranian Civil Aviation Organization and airport officials were reopening routes in phases as safety and infrastructure conditions improved. Tehran’s Imam Khomeini Airport City CEO was quoted as saying international flights were being brought back gradually, with additional routes to be approved step by step.
The broader aviation reset comes after months of disruption caused by the conflict involving Iran, the United States and Israel. Flight operations had been heavily restricted, and Iranian authorities only began partial reopening after the ceasefire environment allowed civil aviation to restart in stages.
The Moscow route is significant because Iran and Russia have maintained active political, economic and security ties during the conflict period. A return of flights between the two capitals would restore an important direct travel link for diplomatic, commercial and passenger traffic.
The latest reports show that Iran is still moving cautiously, with air routes being restored in phases rather than all at once. Officials have said the process depends on operational conditions and aviation approvals as the country works to normalize flight services.
