Intense Ukrainian Drone Attacks Drive Civilian Flights Out of Southern Russian Skies

  • Ukraine launched a large-scale drone attack on May 22 targeting southern Russian regions and Moscow, leading to civilian flights halting over multiple airports.
  • The attacks followed a pattern of increasing drone strikes over consecutive days aimed at disrupting Russian military and industrial targets near the Ukraine border.
  • Russian air defenses shot down over 180 drones across 11 regions, including more than 40 near Moscow, while several regions reported casualties and property damage from strikes.
  • Sergei Sobyanin, the mayor of Moscow, reported that the drones were heading toward the capital, prompting the suspension of flights at all four major Moscow airports and temporary restrictions on mobile internet in impacted areas to maintain safety.
  • The drone campaign forced Russia to close at least 11 regions’ civilian airspace, causing widespread flight diversions and underscoring the growing impact of Ukraine's drone capabilities.
