The Inhlangano Yezindiza Yezindiza Yomhlaba Wonke (IATA) samukele isivumelwano sakamuva sokundiza phakathi koMbuso waseJordani noMbuso wakwa-Israyeli esivumela ukuthi izindiza zinqamule indawo yasemazweni womabili. Lesi sivumelwano sivula indlela yokuthi izindiza zezentengiselwano zikwazi ukundiza ngomhubhe wakwa-Israel-Jordan — ozonciphisa izikhathi zezindiza, unciphise ukushiswa kukaphethiloli kanye nokukhishwa kwe-CO2.
Izindiza sezindiza ngokomlando zazizungeze i-Israel lapho zindiza empumalanga / entshonalanga zisebenza ngaphezulu komoya waseMiddle East. Ukuhamba okuqonde ngqo esikhumulweni sezindiza saseJordanian nase-Israel ngokwesilinganiso kuzosika i-106 km ngasempumalanga ne-118 km ngasentshonalanga ezindizeni ezisebenza zisuka eGulf States nase-Asia ziye ezindaweni eziseYurophu naseNyakatho Melika.
Ngokuya ngenani lezikhumulo zezindiza ezifanelekile zokuhamba, lokhu kuzoholela ekongweni kwezinsuku eziyi-155 zesikhathi sokundiza ngonyaka nokwehliswa minyaka yonke kokukhishwa kwe-CO2 cishe kwamathani angama-87,000. Lokhu kulingana nezimoto zabagibeli ezicishe zibe ngu-19,000 ezisuswe emgwaqweni unyaka owodwa.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, uma kungakhuphuka inani lezikhumulo zezindiza ezifanelekile, futhi ithrafikhi ifinyelele emazingeni angaphambi kwe-COVID-19 umphumela uzoba ukonga izinsuku ezingama-403 zesikhathi sokundiza ngonyaka nokwehliswa minyaka yonke kokukhishwa kwe-CO2 cishe kwamathani angama-202,000. Lokhu kulingana nokuthatha cishe izimoto ezingama-44,000 zabagibeli emgwaqweni unyaka owodwa.
“Ukuxhunywa kwesikhala somoya phakathi kweJordani ne-Israel kuyizindaba ezamukelekile kubahambi, imvelo kanye nemboni yezindiza, ngalezi zikhathi ezinzima kakhulu. Umzila oqondile uzonciphisa izikhathi zokubuya zabagibeli cishe imizuzu engama-20 futhi wehlise ukukhishwa kwe-CO2. Izinkampani zezindiza zizokonga nezindleko zikaphethiloli ezizosiza njengoba zilwela ukusinda emiphumeleni yesifo i-COVID-19, ”kusho uMuhammad Al Bakri, oyiPhini Likamongameli Wesifunda se-IATA e-Afrika naseMiddle East.
Izinto ezisebenzayo zesivumelwano esisha ziholwa Iziphathimandla Zezokundiza ZaseJordani nezakwa-Israyeli, zisekelwa yi-Eurocontrol, yi-European air traffic management agency kanye ne-IATA.
