MedAire's Monthly Aviation Security Update - May 2026 with Corey Woods, Security Specialist, Aviation & Maritime

In this episode of MedAire Voice Notes, join me, Corey Woods, as I deliver MedAire's Monthly Aviation Security Update for May 2026. We delve into the escalating insurgency in the Sahel, focusing on Mali's heightened airspace risks and the strategic targeting of aviation by jihadist groups. I also provide insights into Venezuela's fragile stability post-political transitions, highlighting ongoing airspace challenges and security vulnerabilities. Additionally, we examine the rising threat of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) to aviation security, with increasing sophistication and frequency of incidents worldwide. Finally, I offer a brief outlook on potential global risks, including the volatile situations in Sudan and Haiti, as well as unauthorized drone incursions in Western and Central Europe. Stay informed and vigilant with our comprehensive analysis and recommendations.
