Danish drone attacks seem professional, says minister, but no evidence of Russian involvement

This is not the first Danish airport closure as a result of
drones this week – Copenhagen airport was forced to close as a result of drones
entering its airspace on Monday.

Authorities said that two to three large drones were spotted
which suspended take-offs and landings for around four hours.

Danish police couldn’t confirm the type or the number of
drones seen around the capital’s airport, but on Tuesday told reporters they
were likely flown by a “capable operator” who wanted to “show off”.

Asked by reporters on Monday if the drones were of Russian
origin, Deputy Police Inspector Jakob Hansen said he could not confirm or deny
this. Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said Russian involvement could not be ruled out

Later on social media, Ukrainian President Volodymyr
Zelensky referenced “Russia’s violation” of Nato airspace in
Copenhagen on 22 September, but did not indicate a source for the information.

Around 20,000 passengers were affected by the airport’s
closure.
