Alertă la Washington: toate zborurile de pe Aeroportul Reagan, oprite după apariția unei drone lângă pistă • Newsweek România

A security alert was triggered at Washington's Reagan National Airport after pilots reported a possible drone near the runway, leading to a temporary suspension of all flights. The incident lasted about 20 minutes while ground teams searched the area, but the drone was not found. This event raised concerns due to the airport's proximity to sensitive sites like the Pentagon and the White House, highlighting ongoing safety issues in the heavily regulated airspace around the capital. The airport handles over 800 aircraft movements daily, and safety concerns have intensified since a tragic accident in January 2025 involving a passenger plane and a military helicopter.
