Summary
The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has advised airlines to continue avoiding airspace over Iran, Iraq, and Lebanon, citing ongoing risks despite a reported framework deal between Washington and Tehran.

"The new event is a direct continuation and specific elaboration of Event 1. Both events report on the EU Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) maintaining airspace restrictions over Iran despite diplomatic progress (a framework deal/ceasefire). They describe the same ongoing situation from slightly different angles or updates within the same timeframe."
"Event 10 describes the establishment of a US-Iran deconfliction mechanism for Lebanon, which is part of the broader diplomatic framework mentioned in the new event. The new event notes that despite this framework (which includes measures like the one in Event 10), airspace risks persist. They are parallel developments within the same diplomatic de-escalation effort."
