民用机场正日益成为军事目标，因为交战中的国家正寻求新的方式来造成经济和心理损害。
Civilian airports are increasingly becoming military targets, as nations at war seek new ways to inflict economic and psychological damage.
乌克兰在美国施压下停止打击俄罗斯炼油厂，已扩大其目标范围——轰炸数据中心并堵塞空域——同时正考虑更激进的战术，如直接袭击俄罗斯机场，《大西洋月刊》报道。基辅周四表示，其仅以“针对特定俄罗斯袭击”的方式进行还击。这种转变将加剧对全球航空安全的威胁：胡塞武装据称本月已20次袭击利雅得机场，蒙上沙特阿拉伯的投资前景；德国指责俄罗斯试图在8月份轰炸莱比锡机场；以及与伊朗相关的威胁促使美国本月早些时候从英国一个空军基地撤离轰炸机。
Ukraine, under US pressure to stop striking Russian refineries, has expanded its targets — bombing data centers and clogging air space — while considering more aggressive tactics like directly hitting Russian airports, The Atlantic reported. Kyiv said Thursday it only responds in kind “to specific Russian strikes.”Such a shift would intensify threats to global aviation safety: The Houthis have reportedly struck Riyadh’s airport 20 times this month, clouding Saudi Arabia’s investment outlook; Germany accused Russia of attempting to bomb Leipzig’s airport in August; and an Iran-linked threat prompted the US to remove bombers from a UK airfield earlier this month.
