Berlin - A ban by Germany on incoming parcels and other air cargo from Yemen was widened Monday into an exclusion from German airspace of all planes which began their flights in Yemen.
The Transport Ministry in Berlin said German air traffic control was instructed to turn away all planes coming directly or indirectly from Yemen.
The order followed the discovery of unexploded parcel bombs dispatched from Yemen.
Germany's federal aviation office advised all Yemeni airlines that their planes were prohibited from landing in Germany.
Berlin has also ordered the German-owned parcels service DHL and US-owned UPS and FedEx to investigate every Yemen-origin parcel in their German depots.
