- A Monitor Desk Report Date: 09 February, 2021

Dhaka: The air traffic control unit of Bangladesh, in coordination with the air traffic control units of neighboring countries, is providing smooth services to airlines crossing Myanmar airspace, the Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh (CAAB) said in a statement on February 8.

Earlier, traffic control on all air routes operating in Myanmar's airspace had been suspended. The decision of stopping all passenger flights comes after taking control of the country by Myanmar’s military in a coup and declaration of a state of emergency for the next year.

CAAB is paying special attention on this issue, the release added.
