|September 30, 2025
DENMARK will ban all civilian drone flights across the country over the coming days to ensure security as Copenhagen hosts an EU summit gathering heads of government, the transport ministry said yesterday.
-
Mysterious drone sightings across Denmark since September 22 have prompted the closure of several airports, with Denmark hinting at possible Russian involvement, though Moscow denies the charge.
Drones were observed over Danish military sites at the weekend for the second straight day, the army said.
Copenhagen is to host an EU summit tomorrow and Thursday.
"Denmark will host EU leaders in the coming week, where we will have extra focus on security.
"Therefore, from Monday to Friday, we will close the Danish airspace to all civilian drone flights," Transport Minister Thomas Danielsen said in a statement.
