The restrictions were introduced by decision of the Federal Air Transport Agency.

The international airport in Kazan did not send or receive flights for about an hour – restrictions were introduced to ensure security measures. This was reported by the Federal Air Transport Agency.

The restrictions were introduced around 9 am. As a result, several flights from St. Petersburg to Kazan were delayed, the Pulkovo online board reported. So. The departure of North Wind Airlines flight N4 247, which was supposed to depart at 9:25, was postponed by almost half an hour, as well as Aeroflot flight FV 6593 – it took off at 10 a.m. instead of 9:30. In addition, the arrival of North Wind flight N4 250 was delayed – it landed at 10:50 instead of 10:15.

The Federal Air Transport Agency added that aircraft crews, air traffic controllers and airport services are taking all necessary measures.

At 9:38 it was reported that restrictions had been lifted.

The Federal Air Transport Agency did not specify the exact reason.

Let us recall that it was previously reported that within 24 hours the regions of Russia were subjected to a massive UAV attack from Ukraine.
