Drone sightings disrupt flights in Norway, Denmark

The main airports in Oslo and Copenhagen suffered flight delays and cancellations for several hours on Monday and early Tuesday following multiple drone sightings close to the airports. Hours after drones were sighted in Denmark's Copenhagen on Monday, Norway has also reported a similar incident. As per local reports, a drone was spotted over Oslo Gardermoen Airport. As per Norwegian news agency NRK, officials from Oslo Airport confirmed that flight operations had been impacted due to the sighting. “For safety reasons, it was decided to move all air traffic to one runway,” press officer Karoline Pedersen told NRK. She added that air traffic is “flowing smoothly and as normal.” Local media reported that two foreign nationals had been arrested for flying drones in a restricted military zone in central Oslo.

The airspace over Copenhagen Airport was closed around 8:30 p.m. local time after two to three “unidentified” drones were spotted in the area, an airport spokesperson said. No flights were allowed to take off or land. Police described the drones as “large.” The airport reopened around 12:20 a.m. local time (6:20 p.m. ET) but some delays and cancellations were still expected, the spokesperson added.

Europe has been on alert since Russian drones violated both Polish and Romanian airspace earlier this month – prompting NATO allies to pledge to beef up defenses on the bloc’s eastern flank. There is currently no indication that Monday’s drone activities in Denmark and Norway are connected to those incidents involving Russia.
