On October 3rd, local time, Thomas de Maizière, the German Federal Interior Minister, unveiled a series of comprehensive measures aimed at addressing the escalating threat posed by drones within the nation's borders. These measures encompass several key initiatives: swiftly presenting a new draft aviation security bill that would empower the German military to collaborate with the police in thwarting drone-related threats; establishing a specialized unit within the Federal Police force, solely focused on drone defense; creating a joint drone defense center at both federal and state levels, tasked with threat analysis, communication coordination, and the execution of response strategies, with the involvement of the German Federal Defense Forces. Furthermore, de Maizière disclosed that the German government is keen on fostering enhanced cooperation at the European level. The forthcoming Munich European Interior Ministers' Meeting, scheduled for this weekend, will delve into discussions surrounding drone threats and the formulation of a European-wide drone detection and defense strategy.
