Leipzig drone bomb signals dangerous escalation for Europe

An armed drone found at Leipzig airport on Wednesday, carrying an explosive device that failed to detonate, points to a Russian-orchestrated plot, according to initial evidence. The drone was discovered near Ukrainian cargo planes, raising concerns for international aviation security. German media reported the bomb contained up to 800g of PETN and semtex plastic explosive. This marks the first such incident in Europe far from the Ukrainian border, amid a series of Russian drone incursions.
