No-fly zone
A no-fly zone is an area where authorities restrict or prohibit aircraft from flying to maintain security or safety. It is typically enforced during conflicts, emergencies, or to protect civilians and infrastructure. Violating a no-fly zone can lead to military enforcement or legal consequences. These zones are established through official orders and can be temporary or long-term, depending on the situation. They serve as a tool for controlling air traffic over sensitive regions, preventing unauthorized or potentially harmful flights in the designated area.
