“Sources told The Journal that the drones took off from a location in the northeast of the Irish capital and flew towards the flight path of the Ukrainian president in breach of a no-fly zone.

Gardaí are investigating the incident but have not yet been able to confirm where the drones came from or who may have been controlling them.

They are trying to establish whether the drones took off from land or an undetected ship, slipping past radars.”

From Newsweek

What To Know
At this time, the origin of the drones and who may have controlled them remains unknown, according to reports, but security forces currently believe the drones were merely meant to disrupt Zelensky's flight, as their lights were on as they flew.

Garda Commissioner Justin Kelly learned of the incident early on Tuesday morning, while Martin and the ministers of Justice and Defense were informed just hours after it occurred.

The Journal reported that Zelensky arrived in Ireland on Monday, ahead of schedule, only for four military-style drones of unknown origin to breach the designated no-fly zone that would have been his flight path.
