Ukraine Urges Aviation Watchdog to Ban Flights in Russian Airspace
Zelenskyy told international carriers that Russian airspace is no longer safe for commercial travel. He cited the expansion of Ukrainian long-range drone operations as a primary risk factor. Following these warnings, Ukraine formally requested that the International Civil Aviation Organization recommend a total flight ban for all member nations.
Putin responded by labeling the flight warnings as state terrorism. He referenced the downing of flight MH17 twelve years ago during his remarks. Zelenskyy maintains that airlines must avoid the region to ensure passenger safety as conflict intensity grows.
