Any context, assuming because of the war?
3rd-party-intervener@reddit
They can’t recover these losses either. Act of war is not covered on insurance policies

Yes, Some aircraft have returned to service.

Interesting no engine covers
Hipparch@reddit
According to their manuals, engine covers are only required if the storage period is 10+ days.

Its only been a couple of weeks. I guess they don't bother for short term storage of less than x weeks/months?
