Volodymyr Zelenskyy has declared that Russia’s airspace is becoming unsafe for commercial airlines as Vladimir Putin promised to step up strikes against Ukraine’s energy facilities in the run-up to winter.
The Ukrainian president said there was no intention to directly threaten civilian flights, but the growing number of attack drones being flown into Russia by Ukraine would have to be “taken into account” by the aviation industry.
