Germany has inaugurated a Joint Drone Defense Center (GDAZ) in Berlin to better detect and neutralize unauthorized drones in the future, with operations set to begin in January.
At the new center, which is located within the Federal Police, representatives from security agencies, the armed forces, or Bundeswehr, and intelligence services will be able to exchange information and "coordinate operational measures," Olaf Lindner, head of the Federal Police's 11th Directorate, explained on Wednesday.
Drone protection efforts have focused primarily on airports, Bundeswehr centers, and energy suppliers.
According to the federal government, drone sightings of key facilities in Germany have increased significantly since the start of the Russian war against Ukraine.
"We mainly assume that these drones are also controlled by hostile powers," said Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt.
The focus is specifically on preventing espionage, sabotage and disruptions to air traffic, as well as protecting against possible attacks. /Telegraph/
