India said on Monday that it has reopened 32 airports that were shut during clashes with neighbour Pakistan, after a ceasefire over the weekend.
The Airport Authority of India said the 32 — from Srinagar in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir to Bhuj in the western state of Gujarat — were now available for civil operations "with immediate effect".
They were closed last week after fierce fighting erupted between India and Pakistan for four days, setting off global alarm it could spiral into full-blown war.
Leading Indian airline IndiGo said it would "progressively commence operations on the previously closed routes".
Pakistan's airport authority fully reopened its airspace on Saturday.
The truce was announced on Saturday. Both India and Pakistan said the border areas were calm on Monday.
