Denmark banned the use of civilian drones for five days next week as it steps up security ahead of a European Union summit in Copenhagen.
The move is intended to eliminate the risk of confusing civilian-operated aircraft with hostile drones during the congregation of EU government leaders, the transport ministry said in a statement on Sunday.
