exclusion zones
Off-limits territories designated
Exclusion zones are areas where entry is prohibited or restricted, typically for safety or security reasons.
Governments establish exclusion zones around nuclear disasters, military operations, or environmental hazards: The Chernobyl exclusion zone remains largely uninhabited.
The term also applies to no-fly zones, fishing restrictions, and cordoned-off protest areas.
In sports, exclusion zones mark boundaries players cannot enter.
