The airspace over the Kapustin Yar training ground is closed until November 30, as new Oreshnik strikes are expected in Ukraine
The airspace over the Kapustin Yar landfill in the Astrakhan region of Russia is closed until November 30, 2025. The restriction is related to conducting tests, including possible missile launches.
Ukrainian resources, including Telegram channels associated with military circles, express expectations regarding the launches of the Russian Oreshnik ballistic missile. This missile, capable of reaching speeds of more than Mach 10 and equipped with separable warheads, was already used on November 21, 2024, against the Dnieper, which caused prolonged explosions.
The closure of the airspace confirms the activity at the landfill, previously identified by OSINT analysts.
