Munich Airport, in interrupted his operations on Friday night (3) for the second consecutive time, after new warnings about the presence of drones in the region. According to a statement published on the official website, the German Air Traffic Controller (DFS) has reduced and preventively suspended the flights to a new order, given unconfirmed sightings of the devices.

The night before, the closure led to the cancellation of more than 30 flights and left about 3,000 passengers retained. The occurrence occurs amid growing concern between countries of the European Union and NATO, which suspect Russia’s involvement in drone overflows on sensitive areas. In recent months, Denmark, Norway, and Poland airports have also needed to suspend operations due to similar incidents, while Romania and Estonia have been directly responsible.
