Drone find: Investigators examine connection between Lower Saxony and Leipzig
At the beginning of the week, drone parts were found near a military airport in Lower Saxony. Investigators are now checking a possible connection to the drone incident in Leipzig.
The German Federal Prosecutor's Office is investigating a possible connection between drone parts found near a Bundeswehr air base in Wunstorf and a drone incident at Leipzig/Halle Airport. The drone parts, which were not commercially available, were found to have some similarities with the drone used in the Leipzig incident, including a part that appeared to be made with a 3D printer.
No explosive traces were found, but the location and design of the drone suggest it may have been a Russian espionage attempt. The drone is believed to have been on the ground for some time before being discovered.
