Drone flights force airports to close in Denmark, Norway
The Straits Times
|September 24, 2025
Large drones flying over Copenhagen’s airport and causing it to shut down constituted the “most serious attack on Danish critical infrastructure” to date, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said on Sept 23.
-
Airports in Denmark’s capital Copenhagen and Norway’s capital Oslo reopened early on Sept 23, hours after unidentified drones caused dozens of flights to be diverted or cancelled, affecting thousands of passengers.
“This is part of the development we have recently observed with other drone attacks, airspace violations and cyber attacks targeting European airports,” Ms Frederiksen said in a statement provided to AFP.
She referred to similar drone incidents in Poland and Romania, and the violation by Russian fighter jets of Estonia’s airspace.
The governments of Poland, Estonia and Romania have pointed the finger at Moscow, which has brushed off the allegations.
Danish intelligence said the Scandinavian country is facing a “high threat of sabotage”.
