The European aviation regulatory authority issues a new warning for Russian space

• The European Union’s Aviation Safety Agency has issued a new alert warning non-European carriers not to fly in the airspace of western Russia.
• The alert issued on Thursday warns of the risk of planes being unintentionally targeted by air defense systems.

Russia’s civil aviation authority, Rosaviatsiya, denounced the alert as a new imposition of sanctions on Russian companies and an attempt to allow Western airlines to regain lost markets, according to Reuters.

EASA said last month’s crash in Kazakhstan of an Azerbaijan Airlines plane after Russian air defenses fired at Ukrainian drones demonstrated the high risk. At least 38 people died in the accident.

The warning is for operators from third countries authorized by EASA, given that Russian airspace has been closed to airlines from the European Union.
