Copenhagen Airport Flights Resume After Drone Incident
Copenhagen Airport flights, delayed and canceled following reports of drones flying overhead, have now resumed operations, according to webangah News Agency.
The largest airport in Denmark canceled flights yesterday evening due to confirmed drone sightings. Danish police reported seeing two or three large drones in the sky above the airport.
The airport halted all flight activities at 8:26 p.m. local time. Flight tracking data from Flightradar showed about 35 flights were diverted to alternative airports.
A Copenhagen Airport spokesperson said police are investigating the drones but declined to provide further details. the airport did not confirm a timeline for resuming flights by midnight local time and warned that delays and cancellations could continue.
Flights eventually restarted early today; however, Norway’s NRK reported a separate drone incident at Oslo Airport forced all flights onto a single runway.
Danish police added that the drones appeared to be operated by a “skilled operator” flying them from multiple directions before disappearing after causing disruption.
