Drone with explosives found at Leipzig/Halle Airport, deactivated

Syaxoni. A drone fitted with explosives has been found and safely deactivated at Leipzig Halle Airport in Germany. Following the incident, German Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt described it as a challenge of a 'new quality of danger' facing Germany's air security.

On Tuesday night, suspicious flying objects were sighted around the airport, leading to the immediate closure of both runways at the main cargo center. As a result, several flights, including one passenger plane, were diverted to alternative airports. A bomb disposal robot was deployed after a report of a suspicious object near the southern runway.
