NEW YORK (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 06th July, 2020) Russians have benefited from yet another Aeroflot flight from New York to Moscow organized amid the coronavirus pandemic.
According to data on the Russian Embassy's Facebook page, the flight, which departed from the John F. Kennedy International Airport on Sunday evening, is the 12th repatriation flight from the US to Russia.
All passengers will be required to self-quarantine for 14 days after arriving in Russia.
