The restriction is effective from Feb. 10 at 11:30 p.m. to Feb. 20 at 11:30 p.m.

El Paso International Airport staff are awaiting further guidance from the FAA.
Here is a statement on behalf of the El Paso International Airport:

Airport staff has reached out to the FAA, and we are pending additional guidance. In the meanwhile, commercial airlines operating out of El Paso are being informed of the restriction, which appears to be security related. Travelers are encouraged to contact their airlines to get the latest information on their flight status."
