Flights at Berlin Brandenburg Airport were halted for nearly two hours after unidentified drones were spotted near the airfield, forcing several aircraft to divert to other German cities. Authorities later announced the situation was under control but warned of a concerning rise in drone-related disruptions across Europe.
German officials, including Chancellor Scholz and CDU’s Friedrich Merz, have pointed to Russia as a potential actor behind similar incidents in neighboring countries—allegations Moscow denies. Recent drone scares in Denmark, Norway, Poland, Romania, and Estonia have intensified fears that Europe may be facing a coordinated attempt to probe its defenses.
The latest Berlin disruption adds to growing concerns that unidentified drones could be part of broader surveillance efforts as geopolitical tensions escalate and Europe increases its military readiness.
