Munich Airport was temporarily shut down on Thursday night after several unidentified drone sightings in the area, the latest in the airspace of European Union countries in recent weeks, officials said.

Germany’s air traffic control restricted flights at the airport—the second busiest in the country—shortly after 10 p.m. on Thursday and then halted them altogether, airport operators said in a statement.
