US bans liquids on flights to Russia
Any kind of gel or aerosol is also banned in travellers carry-on luggage aboard flights between the two countries, Xinhua quoted the US Transportation Security Administration as saying.
The restriction followed a warning Wednesday from the Department of Homeland Security that terrorists could target the Olympic Games in Russia with bomb-making materials hidden in toothpaste tubes.
