Action to close airspace over a major city in the US for security reasons over extended period hasn’t happened since 9/11.
10 day closure for security reasons seems really long.
edit: Same restriction imposed around Santa Teresa, New Mexico. ~15 miles northwest of the El Paso airport.
El Paso is the 6th largest city in Texas so not “major” but certainly large.
25th largest in the United States.
Ft. Bliss is there as well...
