Overview

• Airspace over Aalborg Airport was closed from late Thursday to after midnight following a new drone alert, forcing one KLM flight to return and a SAS flight to be canceled, though police have not confirmed a drone.
• Authorities report no evidence yet naming the perpetrators; leaders describe a pattern of hybrid activity by a professional actor and say there is no direct military threat to Denmark.
• Danish police increased vigilance at the Danish–German border to watch for possible movement of drones or components into the country.
• Media report the Russian landing ship Aleksandr Shabalin loitered near Danish waters with its transponder off; investigators say ship‑traffic data, including foreign vessels, are part of the probe without drawing conclusions.
• Copenhagen plans to buy new detection and neutralization tools and to propose allowing critical‑infrastructure operators to down drones, as EU and NATO coordinate broader counter‑drone measures including EU talks on a proposed ‘drone wall.’
