Russia BOMBS German Airport? High Alert Declared, Flights Halted As Drone Panic Grips Germany
A major security scare unfolded at Germany's Leipzig/Halle Airport after authorities discovered a drone carrying an explosive device near one of the airport's runways. The incident forced the closure of both runways, diverted flights and triggered a large-scale bomb disposal operation. German Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt described the discovery as "a new quality of danger" and called it a possible "hybrid attack scenario." Investigators are now examining the drone, its explosive payload and whether a second flying object was also involved after a cargo aircraft sustained minor damage. Ukraine's ambassador to Germany suggested Russia could be behind the incident, while Moscow has not commented. German authorities say the investigation is ongoing.
