Germany: Drone sightings disrupt Munich airport

Drone sightings at Munich Airport on Thursday evening led to a complete halt in operations, forcing the cancellation of 17 flights and impacting nearly 3,000 passengers. Fifteen other flights were diverted. Airport runways were temporarily closed as a security precaution. While police found no suspicious individuals, the incident has been labeled a 'wake-up call' by the German Interior Minister, who called for increased funding and research into drone defense. The airport has since reopened.
