Middle East Airlines Defends Operations During War as Source of Pride

Middle East Airlines - Lebanese Airlines released a statement responding to reports by some media outlets about a report concerning a book from the International Federation of Air Line Pilots' Associations, to which the Lebanese Pilots Association belongs. The report criticized the airline's continuation of operations during the war and the support provided to civil aviation employees to enable them to continue fulfilling their duties.

The statement also addressed the criticism of the airline's decision to maintain operations throughout the war, which was described as unforgivable and not an act of heroism.
