- An airport employee found the drone on the southern runway near a Ukrainian Antonov AN-124 Condor on Tuesday night and, according to dpa information from security sources, brought it down with a kick.
- Federal Police specialists removed the detonator and defused the device, which was later deliberately detonated because the detonator was reportedly defective.
- The Federal Public Prosecutor’s Office took over the investigation over suspicions of attempting to cause an explosion and dangerously interfering with air traffic.
- The search for a possible second drone is continuing while the northern runway remains closed, and a possibly affected cargo aircraft was found to have minor damage after landing in Hanover.
All of this does not point to amateurish conduct. We are dealing with a professional hybrid threat scenario that we must continue to address.— Federal Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) said this at a press conference at the Leipzig/Halle airport

- According to a NATO spokesperson, the drone was secured overnight near an Antonov AN-124 and then X-rayed; the device reportedly carried an explosive with a detonator.
- According to a Bild report, a remote-controlled robot removed the detonator, and the defused device is now expected to be examined, apparently with NATO investigators involved.

- The Federal Interior Ministry said a diverted aircraft apparently collided with an unidentified object and landed in Hannover with minor damage; the Dresden General Prosecutor’s Office and PTAZ are investigating, and a political motive has not been ruled out.
