Sочи is a resort city in Russia's Krasnodar Krai region that experienced temporary disruptions to civil aviation operations on July 17 due to security concerns related to potential drone attacks. Authorities, including Rosaviation and local municipal leaders, reported the introduction of time-limited restrictions at Sochi International Airport for flight safety, which were later lifted after approximately one and a half hours. The city also issued alerts about threats from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), prompting sirens and public warnings in both Sochi and nearby Sirius.
