Air France said on Wednesday it was suspending all its flights to Damascus due to the worsening security situation in Syria.

"We have taken the decision to suspend flights to Damascus until further notice," a spokeswoman for Air France-KLM said. "It's because of the situation in Syria."

The airline operates three flights a week to Damascus via Amman, on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays.

France, which has led calls for President Bashar al-Assad to step down after a bloody crackdown against opponents, officially closed its embassy in Damascus on Tuesday.
