Finland and Ireland block Russian flights

Finland and Ireland have announced they too will close their airspace to Russian planes.

It is not yet known when the measures will take effect.

Finland shares a 1,300-kilometre (800-mile) border with Russia - meaning a main westbound route from Russia will be closed.

Other countries such as Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Germany, Poland and the UK, have already made similar decisions.

Moscow, for its part, has also banned planes from several countries from flying over its territory.
