🪖 Explosive Drone Found Near Ukrainian Plane at Leipzig Airport

German police discovered a drone carrying a package with a detonator near a Ukrainian Antonov cargo aircraft at Leipzig/Halle Airport shortly before midnight on August 5. The airport was shut down for nearly two hours as bomb disposal teams responded.

Authorities classified the device as a potential explosive. A separate cargo plane forced to abort its landing later collided with an unknown object approximately 6 km from the airport. Police have not ruled out sabotage. The drone's origin remains unknown.

The incident is being described as an escalation following two years of drone incursions at European airports.
