International carriers have cancelled flights into Israel's airports amid ongoing exchanges of rocked fire from Gaza.
Cancellations mounted at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv as British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Lufthansa and Iberia airlines grounded their services out of an abundance of caution.
"The safety and security of our colleagues and customers is always our top priority, and we continue to monitor the situation closely," British Airways said in a statement.
Israeli airstrikes hit Gaza, and Palestinian militants in Gaza fired rockets at targets in Israel, including the main airport in Tel Aviv.
Some flights have been rerouted to Ramon Airport in Eilat, 200km south, according to Reuters.
