I wouldn't rule out a mass panic-type event. A similar event which closed London's Gatwick airport (one of Europe's busiest) garnered no evidence and no serious lines of enquiry.

There's footage of this incident, footage of monday's Copenhagen incident, and there were arrests in Oslo on monday for another incident over Oslo.

Yup and impossible to verify, you can wake up and claim drones were sighted and that’s that.

So are these Russian drones? Or perhaps protests against their pushing of Chat Control?

Summit in Shanghai there Xi gave ok to probe and harass NATO, immediately 20 intelligence drones 100+ miles deep into Poland, 3 fighter jets 10 minutes into Estonia airspace. (Those actions already triggered kneejerk in NATO to give first priority to beefing up NATO countries' air defenses instead of supplying air-defense systems to Ukraine).

Add to that cyberattack on the airports 3 days ago and now massive drones in European airports (when Russia has been for several months having its own airports periodically shut down by Ukranian drones and thus clearly understood such an action and how it can be used in a hybrid war and also how it can hint at capability to perform a "Pautina"(SpiderWeb) style operation against Europe) - what are the chances for the drones to not be Russian. And not forgetting cyberattack on the airports 3 days ago.
