Moscow's Vnukovo and Sheremetyevo airports suspended arrivals and departures for a second consecutive night following warnings from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that Russian airspace is becoming unsafe for civil aviation due to drone activity linked to the war. Russia's Federal Air Transport Agency, Rosaviatsiya, said temporary restrictions had been imposed at Moscow-region airports, and Flightradar24 data showed hundreds of flights cancelled or delayed during the previous disruption. Ukraine has formally notified ICAO and is pushing for an international ban on civil flights over Russia, while Moscow has rejected the warnings as legally invalid and insisted its aviation remains safe.
