Unknown flying object over Saint Petersburg
St. Petersburg airport temporarily suspended all flights on Tuesday. According to unconfirmed Russian media reports, the reason for this was an unidentified object such as a drone in the area. The city council of the second-largest Russian city announced on Tuesday without giving reasons that there were no takeoffs and landings until 12:00 local time. Flight operations resumed at noon.
Data from the Flight Radar website showed that domestic flights bound for St. Petersburg turned around and returned to their point of origin. Fighter jets have therefore been raised, the online news site Basa reported. It was later said that the jets had found nothing. At noon local time, air traffic to St. Petersburg resumed, according to the FlightRadar24 website.
It was later said that the Russian Defense Ministry said it was holding air defense exercises over St. Petersburg on Tuesday. However, it was not announced in advance. Russian Presidential Office spokesman Dmitry Peskov declined to comment on reasons for the flight disruption. Kremlin boss Vladimir Putin was always in the know, he said.
