Germany has approved a document and given a preliminary green light for the sale of 40 Eurofighter jets to Türkiye, thereby initiating technical negotiations, several media reports have indicated.

Significant delays were reported earlier on Friday for flights to Germany or those passing through German airspace.

The delays were reportedly due to issues with air traffic management systems within German airspace.

Passengers at Athens International Airport were also affected, but the problem is gradually being resolved, according to aviation industry sources.

Significant delays in arrivals and departures were caused by a sudden slowdown called by air traffic controllers at Athens airport on Friday.

Controllers reduced the speed at which they handled aircraft movements in response to the Civil Aviation Authority's (CAA) alleged intention to increase their working week to 40 hours.

Flight delays of up to two hours have been reported at Athens International Airport, where air traffic controllers are continuing a go-slow action for a second day.

Kathimerini found that most flights are being delayed by a quarter of an hour and up to two hours in cases.

Air traffic controllers have given no indication on how long their work-to-rule action will continue.

Traffic through the Athens Flight Information Region (FIR) set a daily record on August 10, with 4,944 flights handled by the FIR's air traffic controllers.

Of those, slightly over 1,600 were overflights and the rest, about 3,300, were departures and arrivals at Greek airports.

Google Maps has introduced its "speed trap alert" feature in the country, allowing users to detect the radar spots on the roadways, with a lawyer declaring the action as "in accordance with the law."

Airport traffic this month has resembled the peak of the summer season (end of July to beginning of August).

The increased air traffic is revealed by the data of the European Organization for the Safety of Air Navigation (Eurocontrol) for the period from June 17 to 23, during which Greece was among the 10 European countries with the strongest flight activity.

Authorities have discovered a new active fault line in the Central Anatolian province of Kayseri, with a further study initiated to determine the nature and structure of the fault.

All flights in United States airspace have landed due to an emergency situation.

The reason is an error in the operating program system that serves to manage air traffic control.

The Federal Aviation Administration reports that the problem has affected the territory of the entire country.
