Airport drone reports and disruptions
Compare what the selected dossiers record about dates, places, reported drones, operational effects and attribution. This selective archive does not provide attack totals or a measure of risk. A reported sighting, a closure and an established drone are separate questions.
Selection: public airport dossiers, including the archived Denmark and Norway reports from 2025. Later wave findings are attached only to the dossier IDs named by that reviewed publication.
No Jersey (Channel Islands) airport dossier is published in this archive. New Jersey is a different place.
