[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Hye-young] Russia has banned British airlines from flying through its airspace and landing.


Russian aviation authorities announced on the 25th (local time) that they have prohibited not only landings but also transfers for British airlines in Russia, according to AP and AFP.


The ban on landings and airspace passage applies to aircraft registered in the UK or operated, owned, or leased by UK-related entities.



This measure follows the UK's suspension of approval for the Russian national carrier Aeroflot as part of economic sanctions the previous day. UK Defense Secretary Ben Wallace described this as "retaliation for our actions yesterday."
