Zelenskyy Warns Russian Airspace Becoming Unsafe Due to Ukrainian Drone ActivityPreviousNext

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned airlines, insurers, and passengers that Russian airspace has become increasingly dangerous due to intensified Ukrainian drone activity amid ongoing conflict. He emphasized that while Ukraine does not target civilian aviation, the presence of drones makes Russian skies effectively unsafe and could lead to their closure. Zelenskyy urged foreign governments and aviation stakeholders to heed the warning, noting that Russian authorities have not adequately communicated these risks. The warning follows intensified Russian air strikes on Ukrainian cities and frequent Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian targets.
