At least two Air India planes traversed the Iranian-controlled airspace just hours before Iran launched a large-scale aerial attack on Israel. The flights, identified as Air India 116 and 131, were en route from New York to Mumbai and Mumbai to London respectively on April 13 and April 14. Data from Flightradar24 showed that both of the planes crossed over the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman, regions currently caught amidst tensions between Iran and Israel.
