Not just Kazan; several other Russian cities have also shut down their airports.

In several cities across Russia, airport operations were restricted on the morning of January 5 due to a perceived aerial threat.

This information was reported by RBK-Ukraine citing Russian media sources.

The "Rosaviatsiya" authority stated that airport operations in Nizhnekamsk, Izhevsk, and Perm were limited to "ensure flight safety."

Previously, the Russians closed the airport in Kazan. Temporary restrictions on civilian aircraft flights were also implemented there.

Reports indicated that a "Carpet" plan was activated at Kazan Airport. This plan is announced when there is a threat to aircraft or if there has been a recorded breach of the Russian Federation's borders.
