Airports in southern Russian cities have resumed operations.

Flights have resumed at airports in Vladikavkaz, Volgograd, Gelendzhik, Grozny, Krasnodar, and Sochi, which were suspended due to flight safety concerns.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," flight restrictions were imposed last night at four airports in southern Russia – Volgograd, Krasnodar, Gelendzhik, and Sochi.

At 2:54 a.m. Moscow time, similar restrictions were also imposed at airports in Vladikavkaz and Grozny, Rosaviatsiya press secretary Artem Korenyako reported on his Telegram channel.

Airports in all six cities (Vladikavkaz, Volgograd, Gelendzhik, Grozny, Krasnodar, and Sochi) Operations have resumed, he announced at 5:58 a.m. Moscow time.

"The restrictions were introduced to ensure flight safety. During the period of restrictions, the following aircraft diverted to alternate airfields: one aircraft flying to Vladikavkaz; one aircraft flying to Volgograd; one aircraft flying to Grozny; and one aircraft flying to Sochi," Korenyako wrote.

As a reminder, last night in Rostov-on-Don, a drone crashed onto two private homes, injuring two people. In Bataysk, a drone attack partially destroyed the wall of a multi-story building, evacuating 20 people. Evacuated residents were later allowed to return to their apartments.
