LIVE Mystery drone spotted over British aircraft carrier
Mystery drones have been discovered following a British aircraft carrier at sea and hovering over air force bases in England.
An unidentified 1.5 by 1.5 metre drone was spotted tailing HMS Queen Elizabeth into the harbour of Hamburg, Germany, on Friday, according to German newspaper Bild.
According to the newspaper, the Bundeswehr positioned guards around the port and attempted to target the drone with HP-47 jammers before the unmanned aircraft flew away.
The US Air Force (USAF) has also declared that it spotted “small unmanned aerial systems” over RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall, in Suffolk, and RAF Feltwell in Norfolk last week.
USAF, which uses the bases, said the size and number of drones overhead had fluctuated. The British Ministry of Defence said it would not comment on security procedures.
While it is unclear whether the drones have hostile intent, the incidents come during a week that saw the most significant escalation of hostilities in Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion nearly three years ago.
