Ongoing Ukrainian drone strikes targeting the Moscow region have repeatedly prompted Russian aviation authorities to impose temporary flight restrictions at major airports including Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo, and Vnukovo for safety during air defense operations. In late August 2026, attacks led to closures or coordinated limits at multiple facilities, with similar patterns documented in June and July involving dozens to hundreds of intercepted drones. Trader consensus in this market reflects the established rhythm of these incidents through the end of August, driven by the active conflict and Russia's standard response protocols. No major diplomatic or military de-escalation events have altered this dynamic in the past 30 days.

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.
