- Investigators report no evidence identifying the perpetrators and are examining a possible link to the Russian landing ship Aleksandr Shabalin observed about 12 kilometers off Langeland without a tracking signal.
- Danish leaders describe a coordinated operation involving larger, professionally operated drones, while stressing there is no direct military threat to the country.
- The government plans to procure detection and neutralization systems and will table legislation enabling operators of critical infrastructure to shoot down threatening drones.
- France offered support to help secure Danish airspace and NATO leaders called the situation very serious, as Moscow rejected any role and called the suspicions baseless.
