Rwanda's Cabinet has banned all flights over the capital, Kigali. The recommendation was made after a meeting here on Friday - although no reasons were given for the decision.
Kigali is not the first city with a no-fly zone in the region - Kampala has had one for several months to safeguard against potential terrorist attacks.
The same meeting, chaired by President Paul Kagame, endorsed a draft law to establish a national environmental authority.
