Ongoing Ukrainian drone strikes on the Russian capital have repeatedly triggered temporary suspensions of arrivals and departures at Moscow's main airports, including Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo, Vnukovo, and Zhukovsky, for safety reasons during major attacks in June 2026. Russian authorities cited security threats from intercepted drones, with the largest raids since the full-scale war prompting multi-hour closures and flight restrictions. Additional airspace measures in July lowered altitude limits and banned transit flights over the Moscow region until at least late August. These conflict-driven disruptions shape trader assessments of likely causes for any further suspensions by the market's resolution window, alongside standard factors like weather or technical issues. No major new escalations have occurred in the immediate past week.

The relevant airports are:
- Sheremetyevo (SVO);
- Domodedovo (DME); and
- Vnukovo (VKO).
A qualifying suspension refers to official flight restrictions suspending both departures and arrivals at all three airports for any amount of time. Such suspensions may be issued as one singular order or separate notices, provided suspensions of arrivals and departures are concurrently in effect at all three airports between market creation and the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Suspensions described as "temporary restrictions on arrivals and departures" at the relevant airports by Russian authorities will qualify.
The primary resolution source will be official communications from the Russian government and Russian aviation authorities, including the Rosaviatsiya federal air transport agency; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
