MOSCOW, Feb 22 (Reuters) – Flights were suspended at three Moscow airports on Sunday evening, aviation regulator Rosaviatsia said in connection with drone attacks which the city’s mayor said had been repelled.
Domodedovo, Vnukovo and Zhukovsky airports had operations paused in a series of recurring suspensions. Sheremetevo airport was operating normally, Rosaviatsia said.
Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, in a succession of posts on Telegram, said 20 Ukrainian drones had been destroyed or intercepted en route to Moscow from about 3 p.m. (1200 GMT).
