Russia closes airspace to flights from Bulgaria, Poland, Czech Republic
Russia says it is closing its airspace to flights from Bulgaria, Poland, and the Czech Republic in response to similar measures by these countries over Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine earlier this week.
“Air carriers of these states and/or registered in them are subject to restrictions on flights to destinations on the territory of the Russian Federation, including transit flights through the airspace of the Russian Federation,” the federal air transport agency Rosaviation says.
The measure is set to go into effect from 3:00 p.m. local time on Saturday.
