The reason is the closure of airspace for flights of civil aircraft in the Rostov region of Russia.

“Passengers of the canceled flight are entitled to a free rebooking of a ticket or a refund without deduction. JSC Uzbekistan Airways will additionally notify passengers of any changes in the schedule,” the company said.

According to Russian media, the work of a number of airports in southern Russia, including Krasnodar, Sochi and Anapa, is stopped until midnight.
