The military shot down three drones in two regions of the Southern Federal District.

Last night, two drones were shot down in the Volgograd region and one in the Rostov region, the Ministry of Defense reported. Restrictions imposed due to flight safety concerns have been lifted at Volgograd Airport.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot," due to flight safety concerns, restrictions on incoming and outgoing flights were imposed at Volgograd Airport today.

Volgograd Airport also suspended flight services on December 8. Then, drone debris fell in the Traktorozavodsky district of the city, damaging high-rise buildings and evacuating residents.

Last night, air defense systems intercepted and destroyed three Ukrainian drones; all were neutralized in the Southern Federal District, the Ministry of Defense reported.

"Two UAVs were over the Volgograd Region and one UAV was over the Rostov Region," the ministry's Telegram channel reported.

No damage was recorded on the ground.

In the Rostov Region, a drone was destroyed in the Chertkovsky District, Governor Yuri Slyusar reported on his Telegram channel. "Preliminary reports indicate no one was injured, and no damage on the ground has been reported. Information about the aftermath is being clarified," he wrote.

The Volgograd Region Administration, as of 9:47 a.m. Moscow time, had not reported any information on the aftermath of the attack on its Telegram channel.

Restrictions on aircraft arrivals and departures at Volgograd Airport have been lifted, Rosaviatsiya press secretary Artem Korenyako wrote on his Telegram channel. "The restrictions were introduced to ensure flight safety," he explained.

If a flight is delayed for more than two hours, passengers are entitled to free drinks and hot meals, with meals served every four hours during the day and every six hours at night. In the case of longer delays, hotel accommodations may also be provided, lawyer Natalya Kubasova previously stated. "If a person is denied adequate meals and other required services, the passenger has the right to file a claim against the air carrier and then to court. As a rule, judicial practice shows that in such cases, passengers are successful in recovering compensation for moral damages and a fine from the air carrier," she said.

As a reminder, on the night of December 18, three people were killed and six were injured in a drone attack in the Rostov Region. Several private homes were damaged in Bataysk, and two new buildings and a ship in the port were damaged in Rostov-on-Don.

On November 25, three people were killed and eight were injured in a drone attack in Taganrog and the village of Bessergenevskaya. A 76-year-old Taganrog resident who was seriously injured later died in the hospital, bringing the death toll to four.

By December 1, affected residents had filed 635 applications for one-time payments and 20 for financial assistance for the total loss of property. Two weeks after the attack, residents complained on December 10, many apartments remain without glass. The city administration reported that 283 of the 665 windows had been restored.
