Ukraine-Krieg: Wie die Ukraine den zivilen Luftverkehr in Russland lahmlegen will – und vielleicht auch kann

Ukraine is employing civil aviation to impede Russian military operations, aiming to increase the number of drones targeting the country from 300 to 1000. Following President Volodymyr Zelensky's announcement on September 1, airlines have been advised to avoid Russian airspace. Airlines such as Pegasus, Flydubai, Qatar Airways, Emirates, Etihad Airways, Turkish Airlines, and Chinese carriers have adjusted their routes, causing delays and cancellations.

Russian authorities have dismissed the Ukrainian president's claims, stating that they have explained their security measures to foreign airlines. The International Civil Aviation Organization has warned that civil aviation is increasingly threatened by long-range weapons, drones, and interference from defense systems. The situation is expected to escalate with the production of over 5,000 drones by Ukrainian partners, capable of reaching up to 1500 kilometers.
