All 4 Moscow airports closed due to spate of Ukrainian drone attacks

Moscow, Feb 22: All four international airports of the Russian capital were closed due to safety concerns on Sunday afternoon until further notice as air defence forces shot down 11 Ukrainian drones within an hour.

The Russian civil aviation agency Rosaviatsia said in a press release that air traffic restrictions have been imposed at all four international airports- Domodedovo, Vnukovo, Zhukovsky and Sheremetyevo — due to safety concerns.

“Air defences have intercepted another UAV flying towards Moscow,” Mayor Sergey Sobyanin said on his Max channel.
