    Affected Airspace:
    Syrian airspace, all altitudes.

    Applicability:
    Applies to operators

    Description:
    This CZIB is issued on the basis of information available to EU Member States and
    EU institutions. Due to the remaining hazardous security situation, with the
    presence of terrorist organisations and ongoing military operations, there is a risk
    of both intentional targeting and misidentification of civil aircraft. The presence of a
    wide range of ground-to-ground and dedicated anti-aviation weaponry poses a
    HIGH risk to operations at all flight altitudes.

    Recommendation(s):
    Operators should take this information and any other relevant information into
    account in their own risk assessments, alongside any available guidance or
    directions from their national authority as appropriate.
