“Sensitive infrastructure was not threatened” by the overflight, Commander Guillaume Le Rasle, spokesperson for the maritime prefecture, told Agence France-Presse (AFP).

[...] On Friday evening, the Rennes prosecutor's office informed AFP that no drones had been shot down and no pilots had been identified. “Therefore, no link to foreign interference has been established,” added Public Prosecutor Frédéric Teillet, specifying that the naval infantry had “used a jammer, not a firearm,” against the drones.
