Repeated Ukrainian drone attacks on the Moscow region have driven multiple temporary restrictions or full suspensions of air traffic at Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo, Vnukovo, and Zhukovsky airports in October and November 2026. Russian authorities, via Rosaviatsiya, routinely impose these measures during air defense operations to ensure flight safety, with Mayor Sergei Sobyanin reporting interceptions of dozens to hundreds of drones in single incidents, including record-scale raids exceeding 600 units. These events have caused widespread delays, cancellations, and diversions, reflecting the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict's direct effects on civilian aviation. As of mid-November, operations have returned to normal with no active restrictions, though the pattern of attacks suggests continued vulnerability to escalation or de-escalation signals in the conflict.
