  Here are drop zones A, B and C as per the above navigational warning
  

  Drop zone A, B and C could correspond to:
  A) boosters debris
  B) 1st stage debris
  C) Fairing debris
  
  Haven't found yet a NOTAM/warning for 2nd stage drop zone

  Seems to be 12:20 UTC instead. I hope that the situation clears up soon...
