Bomb disposal robot deployed at German airport after drone found near Ukrainian cargo plane

A bomb disposal robot was deployed at a German airport following the discovery of a drone near a Ukrainian cargo plane. The incident is part of an ongoing investigation into potential security threats at Leipzig airport, where a DHL cargo plane was also forced to make an emergency landing after colliding with an unknown object mid-air while climbing away from the facility.

German police have not yet confirmed reports from a German newspaper that the recovered drone was equipped with explosives and a detonator, stating only that the investigation remains active. Authorities are currently examining whether the drone discovery and the DHL plane collision are linked.
