  • A report on numerous drone sightings in Denmark last September will be published within weeks, according to the new defense minister.
  • The report's release was postponed before the February election, sparking calls for answers from opposition parties.
  • The new minister, Jeppe Bruus, acknowledges the public's demand for the report, which he has not yet seen.

A comprehensive report detailing numerous drone sightings across Denmark last September is expected to be made public within the next few weeks, announced the newly appointed Danish Minister of Defense, Jeppe Bruus.

The report's release has been highly anticipated and was notably postponed shortly before the February election by the then-Minister of Defense, Troels Lund Poulsen. This delay has fueled demands from opposition parties seeking clarity on the nature and presence of these drones.

Minister Bruus stated that he understands the public's and political parties' eagerness for the report. While he has not yet personally reviewed its contents, he is aware of the ongoing debate surrounding it. The previous postponement, attributed to the report not being finalized, has left many questions unanswered regarding the events of last September.
