WHAT HAPPENED

A Ukrainian general has explained a proposed strategy to “close” Russia's airspace, apparently through military measures. The report describes planning or analysis rather than a confirmed new operation.

SO WHAT?

If implemented, such a strategy could represent a significant escalation of the Russia-Ukraine war and threaten wider air traffic.
