The president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, issued a warning to international airlines about the dangers of flying over Russian airspace. According to Zelensky, from now on these flights will be risky due to Ukraine's use of drones.
The Ukrainian leader stated that the decision to issue this warning was made deliberately, considering that security in Russian skies can no longer be guaranteed in the same way as before.
Zelensky assured that Ukraine does not intend to cause the loss of innocent lives with these operations, and that is why he decided to alert his international partners about the new reality in Russian airspace.
The warning represents an escalation in Ukraine's use of drones as a military strategy against targets within Russian territory, significantly altering the landscape of international civil aviation security.
