Turkish Airlines is canceling flights to the Russian capital due to restrictions imposed at Moscow airports last night, according to the Association of Tour Operators of Russia (ATOR), anews informs via TASS.

"On May 26, restrictions on the reception and departure of aircraft were again imposed during night hours at Russia's central airports. This has caused changes in the schedules of Domodedovo, Vnukovo, and Zhukovsky airports. Up to 60% of flights are not operating according to schedule or have been canceled. The regularity of Turkish Airlines flights has also been affected," reads the statement.

Tour operators are investigating the situation and recommend waiting for information about new flight times.
