  • Denmark has imposed a nationwide ban on civilian drones and model aircraft from Monday through Friday tied to security for the EU leaders’ meeting in Copenhagen.
  • Germany is supporting Denmark with Bundeswehr counter‑drone units, and the frigate Hamburg has arrived in Copenhagen to bolster surveillance during the summit.
