Moldova airspace closure after drone incursion delays Zelenskyy flight

An airspace closure delayed the Ukrainian leader’s trip between Moldova and Norway, officials said. They did not confirm a claim by Norway’s prime minister that a drone had “almost hit” the plane.

The dramatic incident is said to have happened minutes after Volodymyr Zelensky's plane left the runway on Tuesday, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere told public broadcaster NRK.
