German airport drone bomb raises hybrid war fears

German authorities are investigating how a drone loaded with explosives reached a runway at Leipzig airport, prompting the interior minister to warn of a "new level of danger" from an attack that "may involve foreign powers." While no direct link to Russia has been proven, the BBC has seen evidence from a 2024 plot in which Russian-linked proxies handled drones and explosives and delivered them to Germany. The incident forced a runway lockdown and raised concerns about hybrid warfare.
