Netherlands to close airspace to Russia from Sunday evening

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – The Netherlands will close its airspace to Russian aircraft from Sunday evening, the infrastructure minister said.

“There is no room in Dutch airspace for a regime that applies unnecessary and brutal violence,” Mark Harbers said in a post on Twitter. “The Netherlands is therefore preparing to close its airspace to Russian aircraft this evening.”
