Middle East & Gulf

Regional hostilities have widened exposure well beyond the traditional conflict states. Gulf countries face episodic missile and drone threat and airspace closures rather than ground risk, with the practical constraint being aviation continuity. The Levant remains the most constrained environment in the region, and there risk differs more within countries than between them.
