A new military airfield in Russia's Baltic exclave of Kaliningrad region will receive aircraft by the end of this year, the Russian Defense Ministry said Saturday.


This means that the first phase of large-scale airfield facilities reconstruction in Kaliningrad will be completed by then, the ministry said in a statement.
