I would assume the new procedures aren't in force yet. | |

Airlines do check passport and visa at check-ins before boarding the plane and they could tell the passenger they will need to book a different route to Russia. I'm guessing this might happen but don't know how its being done right now if they're enforcing it somehow. | |

This is given as the reason why they can no longer drive across the border, since there are no border checks. If there are also no document checks when flying, that would suggest that flying is also not allowed. | |
