Germany is taking steps to allow its military to shoot down mysterious drones suspected of spying on critical infrastructure, such as military bases and industrial facilities. Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s cabinet is expected to approve a draft amendment to the Aviation Security Act, granting the armed forces authority to neutralize drones to prevent potential attacks or accidents, according to sources familiar with the matter. Currently, authorities rely on jamming transmitters to disable unidentified drones, but strange objects appear resistant to this technology. Recent sightings of drones in restricted airspace near energy, telecommunications, and transport hubs have prompted Interior Minister Nancy Faeser and Defense Minister Boris Pistorius to push for the new measures. Sources suggest the drones may be linked to state actors involved in espionage, sabotage, or terrorism, with Russia and China being primary suspects. However, the draft amendment does not explicitly name any country. When questioned, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun denied knowledge of the matter, adding that China “firmly opposes groundless speculations or smears.” The Russian embassy in Germany did not comment. Under the proposed amendment, local authorities could request military intervention to address drone threats, expanding the current law that limits the armed forces to engaging foreign military aircraft under specific conditions. Suspicious drones have been sighted near several military sites, including the US airbase in Ramstein, where drones have flown over runways at speeds exceeding 200 km/h. Sources believe these are advanced military drones, potentially deployed by Russia, as they target bases involved in training Ukrainian soldiers. Ufologists claim that these are not drones at all, but UFOs that cannot be caught because their technology is much superior to ours. Unidentified drone activity has also been reported near critical infrastructure in Sweden, the UK, and Baltic states in recent months, though the reasons remain unclear.
