Munich Airport will begin gradually resuming operations from 7:00 am (0500 GMT) after drone sightings near its airspace forced it to postpone Saturday's early flights.

The airport operator warned of disruptions throughout the day in a notice posted on its website.

Both runways at Munich airport were closed on Friday evening.

For the second time in less than 24 hours, after drones were sighted, leading to dozens of flights being diverted or cancelled and stranding some 6,500 passengers.

The airport, which had been scheduled to open at 5 a.m., advised travellers to check with their airlines for updates.
