Germany is experiencing a rise in unidentified drone incidents, with 144 logged this year, particularly around Frankfurt Airport. Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt aims to enhance drone defense capabilities amid concerns of espionage. The distinction between spy drones and harmless ones is challenging for authorities. Recent drone sightings also disrupted operations in Oslo and Copenhagen, raising fears of Russian involvement. Measures are being taken to counter drone threats, especially near airports, where flying drones is a criminal offense.
