On Friday, a drone was sighted over the port of Hamburg, while the British aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth was anchored there.

The German army confirmed the incident and deployed a drone defense team with an HP-47 jammer. No shots were fired. The drone, about 1,5 meters tall, reportedly disappeared in a container terminal. The background to the incident is currently unclear.

The aircraft carrier's presence in Hamburg is part of a diplomatic visit to deepen German-British defence relations. Queen Elizabeth High-level talks on military cooperation and arms procurement took place, with representatives from Germany and Great Britain taking part. The port visit also marks the first arrival of a carrier of this class in Hamburg.
