Germany is preparing a broad security package aimed at strengthening defenses against drone attacks, cyber intrusions and other suspected Russian sabotage following a failed attack on an airport last month, Reuters reported citing Bild am Sonntag. Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt told the newspaper that hybrid attacks attributed to Russia have become part of daily life and are expected to increase, although he asserted that Germany could defend itself. Russia has repeatedly rejected accusations of conducting sabotage operations in Western Europe, denied involvement in the German airport incident, and warned it would respond to what its Foreign Ministry described as "anti‑Russian action." Under the planned measures, Germany would expand mobile counter‑drone capabilities available to police, with rapidly deployable units stationed in cities and tasked with protecting airspace around critical transportation hubs and government districts. Operators of critical infrastructure, including electricity utilities and defence manufacturers, would receive legal authority to actively counter drones rather than being limited to detection. Berlin also plans to establish a national cybersecurity shield, described as a "cyberdome," comprising a network of digital sensors capable of detecting and intercepting attempted hacking attacks. Security authorities would make greater use of artificial‑intelligence‑supported technology, biometric facial recognition and video surveillance, with railway stations among the locations where such systems could be deployed to identify suspected attackers preparing acts of sabotage. The proposals would broaden Germany’s defenses across both physical and digital infrastructure at a time when European governments are increasing spending on security and counter‑drone technology. Germany’s Interior Ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the reported measures.
