Copenhagen Police said in a statement on X that “two to three large drones have been seen flying in the area,” and that it was unclear how long the disruption would last.

The airspace over the airport has been closed since 8:30 p.m. local time due to the “unidentified” drones, the airport spokesperson said. No flights have been allowed to take off or land.  ...

Separately on Monday, police in the Norwegian capital of Oslo said they arrested two foreign nationals for flying drones over restricted area.  ...

Interesting to note that that route would be the the most viable in war between Russia and Europe, if the drones take the baltic route, and Copenhagen is about the same distance as Berlin, last week a certain vodka enthusiast threatened to march on Berlin again
