Police launched an operation at Leipzig/Halle Airport after a fence was found damaged, and they said they were unsure whether any unauthorized persons were on the airport grounds while the area was being searched.
The north runway was closed and flight operations on the north side were halted, while the south runway stayed operational; the cause of the fence damage was initially unknown, and in August a drone loaded with explosives had been found near a Ukrainian cargo aircraft at the airport, with the German government blaming Russia for that attempted attack.
