British holidaymakers have told the BBC they are stranded abroad after their flights were cancelled when the US-Israeli war broke out.
Airspace remains severely restricted following missile strikes across the Middle East meaning commercial flights through major hub airports have been grounded.
Some British travellers are trapped in far-flung locations facing bills for accommodation, food and essentials which may not be covered by their travel insurance.
Andrea Pendrey and her partner were on holiday in the Maldives before she was due to begin treatment for breast cancer.
They were due to fly back on Sunday 1 March - hours after the war broke out - and arrived at the airport to find their flight cancelled.
