Now, for the first time, the Defense is releasing a video of the controversial incident at the Borris Training Area last September, where soldiers fired shots “at one or more flying objects that were likely drones.”

This follows DR Verificerer having requested access to the recording under freedom of information.

The video was filmed ( https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/indland/live-nu-fremlaegger-politiet-konklusioner-i-droneefterforskning?focusId=12625076#liveblog-embed ) by an employee at the training area who, according to the Defense’s own account ( https://www.forsvaret.dk/globalassets/fko---forsvaret/dokumenter/publikationer/-ikl-revurdering-af-episoden-i-borris-den-28.-september-2025-.pdf ), assessed that the object in the sky was a propeller plane – and thus not a drone.

The employee also explained that the shots were only fired after the recording. Later, the same individual observed another object at low altitude, which the employee assessed to be “a drone with four rotors,” according to the report.

Incorrect information

--------------------

Last week, the Defense admitted to having provided incorrect information about the incident. Among other things, the shots were fired between 8:06 PM and 8:08 PM, and not around 8:20 PM, as the Defense initially reported.

At the same time, it emerged that a Norwegian passenger plane passed through the area while shots were being fired. According to the army chief, however, the shots were not aimed at the plane.
