During Tuesday evening, a drone was observed over Arlanda by security guards, which Aftonbladet was the first to report. A report has been filed and the incident is being investigated as a crime against the aviation law, confirms the police.

On Monday night, several drones were observed on site, and on the following evening, at least one more. Both incidents are being investigated as crimes against the protection law and the aviation law.

No one has been arrested yet.

Robert Sennerdal, press spokesperson for the police, emphasizes that all incidents involve unconfirmed observations.

There are still no confirmations that it's a drone, he says.

According to the police, it's difficult to identify drones and determine distances in the dark. Common misconceptions include, for example, airplanes, helicopters, satellites, and stars, they write on their website.

The Defense Forces have been informed about the incident.

But we haven't received any support request and we're not involved in the investigation, says Henrik Nyström, press secretary at the Defense Forces.

It's a police matter, he says.
