Drones were spotted on the night of September 25 near Aalborg Airport in northern Denmark, as well as three smaller airports in the country. The new drone activity came just two days after a similar incident near Copenhagen Airport, which police said was carried out by a "competent person."
Danish Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen stated that recent drone activity over Danish airports is likely part of a "hybrid attack."
