(Hendrik Schmidt/dpa via AP)Talking Points Leipzig/Halle Airport in Germany narrowly avoided disaster after a drone carrying explosives was discovered and defused on Tuesday. A drone carrying explosives was found late Tuesday at the airport and later defused. The plane flew to another German airport, Hannover, about 200 kilometers (125 miles) to the northwest, where officials found slight damage. He later told reporters that while drone sightings and drone threats are something Germany has dealt with in the past, “that a drone armed with explosives is at an airport is a new threat scenario.” Germany’s drone defense challengedDobrindt said Germany has a mobile drone defense unit and that there is drone defense technology at airports, but the explosive-laden drone was “conceived in such a way, according to what we know at present, precisely to be able to get around drone defense.”
