SRINAGAR: Kashmir Valley on Friday was cut-off from the rest of the world as snowfall led to the closure of the vital Srinagar-Jammu highway, besides affecting air traffic.

An official said that due to continuous snowfall since morning, all flights to and from the Srinagar international airport have been cancelled.

He said that all flights to and from Srinagar airport were delayed in the morning and had to be finally cancelled because the runway clearance at the airport can only be started once it stops snowing.

“Flight operations which remained suspended till noon to and from Srinagar international airport have been cancelled for the day,” he said.
