The details were announced by the Dutch Minister of Defense.

Several drones were spotted over the Dutch airport of Eindhoven on the evening of November 22; as a result, air traffic was suspended for several hours.

This was reported by Dutch Defense Minister Ruben Brekelmans on the social network X.

On the evening of 10 p.m. Nov. 22, civilian and military air traffic was suspended over Eindhoven Airport due to unknown drones.

Drone countermeasures forces from the Defense Ministry were on standby to intervene.

On the night of November 23, air traffic at Eindhoven airport was resumed, according to a Dutch minister.

"The defense ministry took action, but for security reasons cannot yet provide further information on how exactly this was done," he said.

Brekelmans then stressed: obstructing air traffic with drones is unacceptable.
