Air traffic at Eindhoven Airport in the Netherlands was halted for several hours on November 22 after multiple drones were spotted near the airfield. Both civilian and military flights were suspended as authorities activated counter-drone systems and launched an investigation. A day earlier, the Dutch military had already fired at drones seen above Volkel Air Base, around 40 kilometres away. Saturday’s disruption forced several flights to be cancelled, diverted, or rerouted. Air traffic later resumed after Defence officials confirmed that precautionary measures were in place. The origin of the drones remains unknown amid a series of recent airspace incursions across Europe.
