Moscow, June 17 (Petra) -- Russian authorities introduced a new package of restrictions on international and domestic flight movements in the capital, Moscow, and several surrounding regions on Wednesday, as part of efforts to enhance airspace security.

The Federal Air Transport Agency said in a press statement that the measures include restrictions on the movement of light aircraft, ultra-light aircraft, and drones.

The agency added that a minimum flight altitude of 5,200 meters has been established to mitigate potential security risks in the designated airspace.
