- Norway reported at least two suspected drones near Ørland air base for about an hour before they disappeared, and the armed forces are investigating.
- Ten eastern‑flank EU countries, with Ukraine participating, agreed to make a multilayer counter‑UAV network a priority, emphasizing expanded sensor grids and low‑cost interceptors to curb expensive missile use.
- Copenhagen accepted Sweden’s offer of counter‑drone technology to secure the EU leaders’ meeting after a week of disruptive observations over Danish airports and bases.
- Germany’s interior minister announced plans to change air‑security laws so the Bundeswehr can help police shoot down threatening drones after a reported “swarm” in Schleswig‑Holstein, while attribution for the broader incidents remains unproven and Moscow denies involvement.
