Drones spotted over Copenhagen Airport, arrests made

On Tuesday morning, several individuals were arrested after drones were observed over Copenhagen Airport, according to Copenhagen Police on social media. The suspects are believed to be responsible for the drone activities. The police have preliminarily assessed that there was no hybrid attack involved. The incident led to a temporary suspension of air traffic, but normal operations resumed around 9:45 AM following a brief 10-minute disruption and use of an alternate runway for approximately 30 to 45 minutes. The exact number of individuals arrested has not been disclosed by police, who are now investigating the incident. Rasmus Baad, a press advisor at Copenhagen Airport, confirmed the details of the flight disruptions.
