The Russian capital is under massive drone attack.
Moscow airports are again in collapse due to a massive drone attack on the Russian capital. More than a hundred flights have been delayed there, and some flights have been completely canceled.
The waiting rooms at Vnukovo and Sheremetyevo have become overcrowded with passengers who have been waiting for hours for the cancellation of the "Cover" plan, which provides for the temporary closure of the sky for civil aviation.
At Sheremetyevo airport from 17:00 to 19:30, some planes were sent to alternate airfields. Several flights were canceled.

Officially, the airport administration said there were no delays in departure of more than two hours, but passengers reported heavy loading of terminals and difficulties with connections.
"St. Petersburg's Pulkovo also took some of the load: 18 flights were delayed there, eight more were canceled," Russian channels reported.
The airport has accepted five airliners as an alternate airfield, and there are plans to merge some of the flights, which will be carried out on planes of larger capacity.
Meanwhile, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin confirmed a massive drone raid on the city. According to him, 26 drones were allegedly shot down on the approach to Moscow.
