Unidentified drones flew over Danish military installations Friday evening, prompting authorities to temporarily close airspace around Karup airbase. The incident lasted several hours and followed similar drone activity at Danish airports earlier this week. Officials described the events as a hybrid attack carried out by professional operators.
Multiple Nordic and Baltic nations reported comparable drone sightings. Germany investigated drone activity over Schleswig-Holstein while Norway examined possible sightings at Orland airbase. Lithuania experienced flight delays at Vilnius airport due to drone interference.
Danish authorities suspect the incidents represent coordinated aggression but lack evidence linking Russia to the activities. The Russian embassy dismissed involvement claims as staged provocations. Defense officials believe the attacks originated locally despite their sophisticated nature.
