The Syrian regime’s Ministry of Transport has decided to resume passenger flights through Aleppo International Airport in February 2020 after months of shutdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Aleppo International Airport was brought back into service on 15 January; the Syrian Arab Airlines conducted its first flight between Lebanon’s capital Beirut and the northern city of Aleppo. The plane took off with some passengers.
After an eight-year hiatus, due to the conflict, flights were resumed through Aleppo International Airport in 2020, with a domestic flight from Damascus International Airport. The flight came days after the Syrian Minister of Transport, Ali Hammoud, announced the resumption of civilian flights at Aleppo International Airport. This decision came after the Syrian regime forces regained control over large areas across the city of Aleppo.

On 6 January, the World Health Organization (WHO), an agency of the United Nations (UN), used the U.S. sanctioned Cham Wings Airlines to transport 16 tons of medicines, supplies, and equipment from its warehouses in Dubai city, the UAE, to Benghazi, Libya.
These supplies would be used to support services in health care facilities, as well as strengthen the health response to the COVID19 pandemic, WHO Representative in Libya, Elizabeth Hoff, tweeted.
