Explosive Drone Threat at Leipzig Airport | Europe News
Description
A drone loaded with Semtex explosives—same type used in the 1988 Pan Am bombing—was discovered at Leipzig Airport, sparking a major security scare. A bomb squad robot safely disarmed it after an airport worker found it in a restricted cargo zone, leading to flight disruptions and a near-miss involving a DHL cargo jet. The drone’s proximity to a Ukrainian Antonov plane heightened tensions, with Ukraine’s ambassador blaming Russia. German officials, including the Interior Minister, are now racing to investigate this attempted attack, with no arrests made yet.
