Ukrainian drone strikes on July 19-20 disrupted operations at Moscow airports and regional rail services in Rostov Oblast, according to analysis by "Agency."

The capital's four major airports—Vnukovo, Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo, and Zhukovsky—collectively suspended operations for 51 hours and two minutes over the weekend and into Monday morning. Vnukovo experienced the longest shutdown at 21 hours, followed by Sheremetyevo (13 hours), Domodedovo (11 hours and 39 minutes), and Zhukovsky (5 hours and 24 minutes).

As reported by Vedomosti newspaper, the drone attacks forced the cancellation of over 300 flights on July 18-19 alone. Stranded passengers resorted to sleeping in terminal waiting areas, using floors, staircases, and even artificial lawns as makeshift beds.
