Air traffic control first suspended operations late Thursday night, canceling 17 flights and disrupting travel for nearly 3,000 passengers, who were given camp beds, blankets and food to pass the night.
“Our police must get the power to shoot drones down,” Markus Soeder, premier of Bavaria, wrote on X Thursday, promising to pass emergency legislation to secure German airspace.
