Police said one to two drones were observed on Friday at about 8.15 pm (7.15pm local time) near and over Karup airbase, the country's biggest base that houses all of the armed forces' helicopters, airspace surveillance, flight school and support functions. Karup is also home to parts of the defence command, according to the military's website. A police spokesperson, Simon Skelkjaer, said police could not comment on where the drones came from, adding: We didn't take them down.
Danish prime minister Mette Frederiksen conceded earlier that there may be more to come, as she laid bare the challenge these hybrid attacks pose for the country in a rare TV address. She conceded that the recent events showed vulnerabilities in Denmark's critical infrastructure, but urged citizens not to give in to insecurity and division they were meant to create.
