Ukraine to close part of airspace over Black Sea for missile tests
Ukraine will close airspace over the Black Sea in Kherson region for several days this week due to tests of intermediate-range missiles, spokesperson for the Ukrainian Air Force Dmytro Strutynsky said.
"The Ukrainian Air Force is starting flight tests of intermediate-range missiles for its air defense systems in Kherson region," Strutynsky told Interfax-Ukiraine on Wednesday evening.
The tests will be carried out "during this week, until Sunday," presumably from November 1 through November 4, but an official statement on their beginning and the closure of airspace is to be made on Thursday, he said.
