Drone attacks have brought operations at the airport in Sochi, Russia, to a standstill
Sochi International Airport is experiencing major disruptions due to drone attacks, resulting in dozens of flights being delayed or canceled, and thousands of passengers unable to leave the resort city since Friday, June 5.
People are complaining about the overcrowded terminal, where there are no seats left, forcing passengers to sit and lie directly on the floor, using towels and travel mats.
It has been reported that, just a few days after the start of the massive attacks, the airport was open for aircraft operations for only 8 minutes. At the same time, the airport’s press service claims that the situation remains calm and that all operations, from check-in to boarding, are reportedly proceeding as usual. Airlines and airport ground services report working in an enhanced mode to stabilize the flight schedule as quickly as possible.
This was reported by the ASTRA Telegram channel.
