As tensions persist between Iran and Israel, the logistics sector remains vigilant, implementing measures to navigate the challenges and maintain the flow of goods amidst uncertainty.

The ongoing geopolitical tensions between Iran and Israel are causing ripple effects throughout the international trade landscape, particularly impacting logistics and maritime operations. With both nations engaged in brinkmanship, concerns about the stability of trade routes, shipping, and air freight costs have intensified.

The conflict has the potential to significantly affect air freight operations due to airspace closures, heightened security measures, and market instability. Heightened security protocols at airports and cargo facilities are complicating air freight logistics, leading to increased processing times and costs.
