Overview

• Unidentified drones triggered temporary closures at Copenhagen, Aalborg and Billund, forcing at least 31 diversions at Kastrup and additional reroutings at Aalborg, with sightings also near the Skridstrup airbase.
• Danish authorities described a professional, coordinated pattern using different types of drones consistent with a hybrid operation targeting critical infrastructure.
• Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen said investigators have no proof linking the incidents to Russia and noted there is no military threat to Denmark.
• The Russian embassy in Copenhagen denied any involvement, calling suggestions of Moscow’s role absurd and describing the episode as a staged provocation.
• Denmark and Norway are conducting a joint investigation with NATO engagement, and Danish media reported a Russian naval vessel operating near Danish waters during the disruptions.
