British Airways has suspended flights to Israel after one of its planes chose to Turn Back shortly before landing due to security concerns.

A spokesperson for Israel's airports authority said rockets were flying around Tel Aviv at The Time but were not an immediate threat to The Flight .

A BA spokesman said safety was the airline's " highest priority".

" Following the latest assessment of The Situation , we're suspending our flights to and from Tel Aviv, " they said.

" We're contacting customers booked to travel to or from Tel Aviv to apologise for the inconvenience and offer options including a full refund and rebooking with another airline or with British Airways at a later date.

" We continue to monitor The Situation in the region closely. "

Since Palestinian militant group Hamas attacked Israel on Saturday, many international airlines have suspended flights to and from Tel Aviv.
