EaseMyTrip halts travel to Turkey and Azerbaijan amid tensions, following their perceived support for Pakistan post-attack.

EaseMyTrip Suspends Turkey, Azerbaijan Trips

EaseMyTrip halts Turkey and Azerbaijan trips due to rising India-Pakistan tensions, amid backlash for perceived support.

Indian travel sites suspend bookings to Turkey, Azerbaijan

EaseMyTrip suspends trips to Turkey and Azerbaijan, citing support for Pakistan. Cancellations spike due to tensions.

In the wake of escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, EaseMyTrip has announced its decision to suspend all flight and hotel bookings for Turkey and Azerbaijan, citing these countries' perceived support for Pakistan.
Co-founder of the online travel platform, Prashant Pitti, stated in an interview with CNN-News18 that the past few days have seen a significant uptick in trip cancellations to these destinations.
Specifically, there has been a 22% cancellation rate for Turkey and over 30% for Azerbaijan, highlighting the impact of the ongoing geopolitical situation.
Pitti shared data indicating that last year, approximately 380,000 Indians traveled to either Turkey or Azerbaijan. Considering an average expenditure of 60,000 to 70,000 rupees per traveler, this translates to a spending of about 2,500 to 3,000 crore rupees by Indian tourists.
Pitti emphasized that it is crucial for Indian citizens to be mindful of where they allocate their travel funds, especially in response to these countries' support of Pakistan through arms supply.
Aloke Bajpai, CEO of Ixigo, has similarly declared the suspension of bookings for Turkey, China, and Azerbaijan on their platform. Bajpai's statement, "Enough is Enough! Blood and Bookings won&rsquo;t flow together," underscores the growing sentiment in the Indian business community.
This move is part of broader actions taken by Indian businesses and political leaders to protest against countries perceived as supporting Pakistan after the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam. Turkey and Azerbaijan, in particular, are facing significant backlash in India, as these nations have chosen not to align with the global condemnation of the attack.

A deadly crash of an Azerbaijani passenger jet in Kazakhstan's Aktau city, suspected to have been caused by a Russian missile strike, left 38 dead and 29 survivors. Investigations continue.

Russian Missile Likely Responsible for Azerbaijani Jet Crash, Killing 38

Azerbaijan Airlines initially said the plane flew through a flock of birds, before withdrawing the statement.

Azerbaijani and US officials believe a Russian surface-to-air missile caused the deadly crash of an Azerbaijani passenger jet, media reports and a US official said Thursday, as the Kremlin cautioned against "hypotheses" over the disaster.
The Azerbaijan Airlines jet crashed near the Kazakh city of Aktau, an oil and gas hub, on Wednesday after going off course for undetermined reasons.
Thirty-eight of the 67 people on board died.
The Embraer 190 aircraft was supposed to fly northwest from the Azerbaijani capital Baku to the city of Grozny in Chechnya, southern Russia, but instead diverted far off course across the Caspian Sea.
An investigation is underway, with pro-government Azerbaijani website Caliber citing unnamed officials as saying they believed a Russian missile fired from a Pantsir-S air defence system downed the plane.
The claim was also reported by The New York Times, broadcaster Euronews and the Turkish news agency Anadolu.
Some aviation and military experts said the plane might have been accidentally shot by Russian air defence systems because it was flying in an area where Ukrainian drone activity had been reported.
A former expert at France's BEA air accident investigation agency said there appeared to be "a lot of shrapnel" damage on the wreckage.
Speaking on condition of anonymity, he said the damage was "reminiscent" of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17, which was downed with a surface-to-air missile by Russia-backed rebels over eastern Ukraine in 2014.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters: "It would be wrong to make any hypotheses before the investigation's conclusions."
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
- Shrapnel strikes reported -
Euronews cited Azerbaijani government sources as saying that "shrapnel hit the passengers and cabin crew as it exploded next to the aircraft mid-flight".
A US official, speaking on condition of anonymity, also said early indications suggested a Russian anti-aircraft system struck the plane.
Kazakhstan news agency Kazinform cited a regional prosecutor as saying that two black-box flight recorders had been recovered.
Azerbaijan Airlines initially said the plane flew through a flock of birds, before withdrawing the statement.
Kazakh officials said 38 people had been killed and there were 29 survivors, including three children.
Jalil Aliyev, the father of flight attendant Hokume Aliyeva, told AFP that this was supposed to have been her last flight before starting a job as a lawyer for the airline.
"Why did her young life have to end so tragically?" the man said in a trembling voice before hanging up the phone.
Eleven of the injured are in intensive care, the Kazakh health ministry said.
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
- Day of mourning -
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev declared Thursday a day of mourning and cancelled a planned visit to Russia for an informal summit of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), a grouping of former Soviet nations.
"I extend my condolences to the families of those who lost their lives in the crash... and wish a speedy recovery to the injured," Aliyev said in a social media post Wednesday.
The Flight Radar website showed the plane deviating from its normal route, crossing the Caspian Sea and then circling over the area where it eventually crashed near Aktau, on the eastern shore of the sea.
Kazakhstan said the plane was carrying 37 Azerbaijani passengers, six Kazakhs, three Kyrgyz and 16 Russians.
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
- Bloodied survivors -
A Kazakh woman told the local branch of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) she was near where the plane crashed and rushed to the site to help survivors.
"They were covered in blood. They were crying. They were calling for help," said the woman, who gave her name as Elmira.
She said they saved some teenagers.
"I'll never forget their look, full of pain and despair," said Elmira. "A girl pleaded: 'Save my mother, my mother is back there'."
Russian President Vladimir Putin held a phone conversation with Aliyev and "expressed his condolences in connection with the crash", Peskov told a news conference.

An Azerbaijan Airlines flight carrying 67 passengers crashed near Aktau, Kazakhstan. Thirty-two survivors have been reported, with 28 hospitalized. Investigations are ongoing, and leaders express condolences.

Azerbaijan Airlines Plane Crashes Near Aktau, 32 Survivors Reported

The plane was flying from the Azerbaijani capital Baku on the western shore of the Caspian to the city of Grozny in Chechnya in southern Russia.

An Azerbaijan Airlines passenger jet with 67 people on board crashed on Wednesday in western Kazakhstan after veering from its scheduled route, officials said.
Azerbaijani authorities said 32 people had survived the crash of the Embraer 190 near the city of Aktau, an oil and gas hub on the eastern shore of the Caspian Sea.

The plane was flying from the Azerbaijani capital Baku on the western shore of the Caspian to the city of Grozny in Chechnya in southern Russia.
"A plane doing the Baku-Grozny route crashed near the city of Aktau. It belongs to Azerbaijan Airlines," the Kazakh transport ministry said on Telegram.
Azerbaijan Airlines, the country's flag carrier, said the plane had 62 passengers and five crew on board.
It said the plane "made an emergency landing" around three kilometres (1.9 miles) from Aktau.
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev cancelled a planned visit to Russia for an informal summit of leaders of the Commonwealth of Independent States, a grouping of former Soviet nations.
The Kazakh transport ministry said the plane was carrying 37 nationals from Azerbaijan, six from Kazakhstan, three from Kyrgyzstan and 16 from Russia.
The office of Azerbaijan's prosecutor general said: "According to available data, 32 people survived the crash."
"We cannot disclose any investigation results at this time. All possible scenarios are being examined, and the necessary expert analyses are underway," it said in a statement.
"An investigative team, led by the deputy prosecutor general of Azerbaijan, has been dispatched to Kazakhstan and is working at the crash site."
&nbsp;
- Doctors flown to site -
The Kazakh emergency situations ministry said its staff put out a fire which broke out when the plane crashed.
The ministry earlier reported that "28 survivors including two children have been hospitalised."
It said 150 emergency workers were at the scene.
The health ministry said a special flight was being sent from the Kazakh capital Astana with specialist doctors to treat the injured.
Aliyev's office said the president "ordered the prompt initiation of urgent measures to investigate the causes of the disaster."
"I extend my condolences to the families of those who lost their lives in the crash... and wish a speedy recovery to the injured," Aliyev said in a social media post.
Russian President Vladimir Putin held a phone conversation with Aliyev and also "expressed his condolences in connection with the crash," his spokesman Dmitry Peskov told a news conference.
Azerbaijan's first lady Mehriban Aliyeva, who is also the country's first Vice President, said she was "deeply saddened by the news of the tragic loss of lives in the plane crash near Aktau."
"I extend my heartfelt condolences to the families and loved ones of the victims. Wishing them strength and patience! I also wish a speedy recovery to the injured," she said on Instagram.
"I express my condolences to the relatives of the passengers of the Azerbaijan Airlines jet who died," Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov said on Telegram.
The plane's course on Flight Radar showed it crossing the Caspian Sea away from its normal route and then circling over the area where it eventually crashed.
Kazakhstan said it had opened an investigation.

A cease-fire agreement with Azerbaijan was reached on Wednesday to end two days of fighting in the separatist Nagorno-Karabakh region.

Azerbaijan says ceasefire reached with separatist Nagorno-Karabakh region

A cease-fire agreement with Azerbaijan was reached on Wednesday to end two days of fighting in the separatist Nagorno-Karabakh region.

After 2 days of fighting and a military operation, Azerbaijan and officials from the separatist Nagorno-Karabakh region have agreed to a ceasefire. Armenian authorities said at least 32 people have died in the breakaway region after Azerbaijan&rsquo;s strike.
The fighting will be followed by talks between the two parties and will aim for the &ldquo;re-integration&rdquo; of the ethnic Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh.
The talks were scheduled to take place on Thursday in the Azerbaijani city of Yevlakh, news agency AP reported.
The deal was reached through negotiations with the Russian peacekeeping contingent in the region, local officials said. It envisions the withdrawal of Armenian military units and equipment from Nagorno-Karabakh, as well as disarming the local defence forces, Azerbaijan's Defence Ministry confirmed.
It comes a day after Azerbaijan launched a military operation in Nagorno-Karabakh and used heavy artillery fire on Armenian positions there, an attack that local officials said killed or wounded scores of people.

A US congressional delegation headed by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi arrived Saturday in Armenia, where a cease-fire has held for three days after an outburst of fighting with neighbouring Azerbaijan that killed more than 200 troops from both sides.
The US Embassy said the visit will include a meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.
On Friday, Pelosi told reporters in Berlin that the trip “is all about human rights and the respecting the dignity and worth of every person.” Other members of the U.S. delegation include Rep. Frank Pallone, chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, and congresswomen Jackie Speier and Anna Eshoo.
A cease-fire took effect on Wednesday evening following two days of heavy fighting that marked the largest outbreak of hostilities in nearly two years.
Armenia and Azerbaijan traded blame for the shelling, with Armenian authorities accusing Baku of unprovoked aggression and Azerbaijani officials saying their country was responding to Armenian attacks.
Pashinyan said at least 135 Armenian troops were killed in the fighting. Azerbaijan's Defense Ministry said Friday it had lost 77.
The two ex-Soviet countries have been locked in a decades-old conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, which is part of Azerbaijan but has been under the control of ethnic Armenian forces backed by Armenia since a separatist war there ended in 1994.
During a six-week war in 2020, Azerbaijan reclaimed broad swaths of Nagorno-Karabakh and adjacent territories held by Armenian forces. More than 6,700 people died in the fighting, which ended with a Russia-brokered peace agreement. Moscow deployed about 2,000 troops to the region to serve as peacekeepers.
