What happened.What we actually know.
Drone incidents worldwide, each traced to its original sources. We keep what was reported apart from what is confirmed, and show how the story changed.

Click a day to show only that day on the map, or press play. Days are UTC calendar days. Some dossiers are dated by the report (statement date) because the source gives no event day, so these are dossier dates, not event times or incident totals.

How to read a dossier
Every incident is judged on three separate questions. An airport can be confirmed closed while it is still unclear whether a drone was involved at all.
Was there a drone?
Drone presence: reported by a source, confirmed by explicit evidence, inconclusive after investigation, or debunked.
What was the impact?
Closures, diversions, damage or injuries, with their own evidence state. “Not established” means no source reports an impact.
Who is responsible?
Attribution is never inferred. A party’s claim, a charge and a court finding are shown as different things.
