Russia's Interstate Aviation Committee (IAC) denied news on lifting travel ban on Ural Airlines flights to Turkey.

The committee pointed out to real terrorist threat in Turkey.

These statements come to deny rumors that circulated on the media means on lifting the ban.

The Kremlin banned the sale of tour packages and charter flights to Turkey after a Russian jet was downed by a Turkish F-16 over the Turkey-Syria border for repeatedly violating Turkish airspace on November 24 last year.
