Own Correspondent|Reports just in indicate that the army is running operations at Robert Mugabe and Joshua Nkomo Airports following a strike action by Air Traffic Controllers at the two ports of entry into the country.

Sources at the airports said that members of the Airforce of Zimbabwe were rushed in to take over Harare and Bulawayo airports.

On Tuesday morning the Zimbabwe airspace was closed and all flights scheduled to fly in and out of the country were grounded.

The move by the air force has fueled speculations that there might be a more political and sinister agenda behind the said strike and closure of the airspace.
