Authorities at Germany's Leipzig/Halle Airport successfully defused a drone carrying an explosive device discovered near a Ukrainian plane. German officials stated that a catastrophe resulting in multiple casualties was possibly only narrowly averted by the intervention, noting that a 'ripped' detonator prevented the device from detonating.

German authorities are currently investigating the incident to determine whether a foreign state was involved. The targeted Ukrainian aircraft was reportedly carrying ammunition at the time of the discovery.
