St. Petersburg, June 3 — Avia.proPulkovo International Airport has completely lifted temporary restrictions on aircraft arrivals and departures. The regional news outlet Fontanka reports on the current situation in the city following the overnight incident, citing data from aviation services and the online flight information board.

Despite the return to normal operations at the airport, the consequences of the overnight interception of 59 drones continue to impact the flight schedule: as of this hour, 17 flights have been canceled and another 41 are delayed. Meanwhile, a plume of black smoke continues to rise above the St. Petersburg Oil Terminal at Ugolnaya Gavan, where fire crews are extinguishing a localized fire. Meanwhile, the traffic situation in the metropolis is assessed as stable—road congestion is only at a rating of 3, and mobile internet and messaging apps, which had been experiencing interruptions due to security measures, are gradually returning to normal operation.

All city emergency services and law enforcement agencies in the Leningrad Region continue to operate on high alert. Enhanced security measures ensure the smooth running of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, which officially opened today in the northern capital.
