Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt says the device appears to have been professionally prepared, raising fresh concerns over hybrid attacks and the security of critical infrastructure. As investigators work to determine who was behind the incident, a debate is growing over whether Germany is equipped to detect and stop such threats. We spoke with security expert Nico Lange and Verena Jackson, legal adviser at the Center for Intelligence and Security Studies at the University of the Bundeswehr in Munich, about what the case reveals about Germany's drone defenses.
