Recent suspensions of air traffic at Moscow's airports, including Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo, Vnukovo, and Zhukovsky, stem primarily from temporary restrictions imposed by Rosaviatsia during Ukrainian drone incursions. In mid-September 2026, multiple overnight raids prompted flight limits at several Moscow facilities after air defenses intercepted drones, leading to delays, cancellations, and diversions as authorities prioritized safety. These measures align with an escalated pattern of long-range drone operations targeting Russian regions, often accompanied by statements from Ukrainian officials on airspace risks. Trader assessments track official announcements on intercepts, the frequency of such events, and any shifts in conflict dynamics that could alter restriction patterns in the near term.
