Gatwick flights resume after third day of drone sightings

Senior Political Correspondent

Flights are back on again tonight after another day of uncertainty and chaos at Gatwick Airport. The runway re-opened this morning after 36 hours of closure caused by drone disruption, then late this afternoon flights were suspended again for around an hour after a drone was spotted.

Police have described it as “really high-end criminal behaviour”, and are still hunting for the people responsible.
