A flight from Birmingham to Qatar has been diverted amid ongoing US and Israeli air strikes on Iran.

The delayed Qatar Airways flight was due to take off at 08:14 GMT and head to Doha, but flew as far as France before turning back to Birmingham where it landed at about 11:20, a flight tracking platform has shown.

The airline has confirmed it has suspended all flights to the Qatar capital due to the closure of Qatari airspace on Saturday.

The BBC have contacted Birmingham Airport for comment.

Qatar Airways said it is working with the relevant authorities to support impacted passengers and plans to resume operations when the airspace reopens.
