TL;DR
Bodrum airport is operating with flights to Moscow, but delays and occasional turnarounds have been reported. Monitor flight boards and FlightRadar24 before departure.
In recent days, mass delays on Moscow-bound flights have been reported not just from Bodrum but from other cities too (e.g. St. Petersburg) — Turkish authorities are holding their aircraft on the ground amid the current situation until clearance is given.
One traveler reported that Aeroflot proactively notified passengers about a 1-hour delay on a Bodrum–Moscow flight and suggested waiting at the hotel; the flight then departed without further issues.
There are also positive reports: a Turkish Airlines flight from Bodrum to Moscow in late July departed on schedule and completed the trip in exactly 4 hours without delays.
An early morning Moscow–Bodrum flight (5:30) was delayed on the runway for about 40 minutes due to heavy traffic, but the airport was operating actively with planes landing and taking off continuously.
At least one Moscow–Bodrum flight was turned back mid-route and returned to Moscow, possibly due to Russian aviation authority restrictions. Travelers are advised to consider alternative carriers or routes.
To track the current flight situation at Bodrum airport, monitor the airport's online departure/arrival board and FlightRadar24 in real time — especially important for late-night or early-morning departures.
