Conflict arises after El Paso airspace closing
The Federal Aviation Administration and the Pentagon appear to be at odds over Wednesday morning's sudden closure and reopening of the airspace over the city of El Paso. Flights resumed as normal after the FAA grounded all flights to and from El Paso on Tuesday night. U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy confirmed the airspace closure was due to a "cartel drone" breach. Duffy said after the incident that the FAA acted swiftly to address the incident in West Texas.
