Dutch government explores measures to take down drones over PI Vught prison

The Dutch Ministry of Justice and Security is exploring whether the Custodial Institutions Agency should be granted the authority to take down unauthorized drones flying over the high-security PI Vught prison. Due to security concerns, the ministry has not disclosed whether the drones specifically flew over the Extra Secure Institution, the most heavily guarded section of PI Vught. Although the airspace above PI Vught has been restricted to drones and civilian aircraft since July 2022, unauthorized drones can still enter the area. DJI, which oversees the management and security of prisons, forensic clinics, and detention centers, currently employs drone detection systems and collaborates with security services to monitor airspace violations.
