Armee äussert Spionageverdacht – Hier flogen die mysteriösen Drohnen über Militäranlagen

Several unidentified drones were spotted flying over a Swiss military site last week, according to Army Chief Benedikt Roos. The incident occurred at the Jassbach barracks in the Emmental region, which houses a training center for cyber defense and electronic warfare, as well as an eavesdropping facility. According to the 'Sonntagszeitung,' the drones flew in formation, and the army has no information on their origin or purpose. No formal investigation was initiated. Additionally, repeated drone sightings have been reported at the Air Force base in Meiringen, which hosts F-35 fighter jets. The army suspects espionage due to the strategic importance of the location, but again, no formal report was filed by Roos.
