Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

Even if they identify their origin, I don't know that they'll release it to the public. Via The Journal:

FOUR UNIDENTIFIED MILITARY-STYLE drones breached a no-fly zone and flew towards the flight path of Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s plane at sea near Dublin Airport late on Monday night, The Journal has learned.

The plane landed, slightly ahead of schedule, just moments before the incident happened at about 11pm. The drones reached the location where Zelenskyy’s plane was expected to be at the exact moment it had been due to pass.

The drones then orbited above an Irish Navy vessel that had secretly been deployed in the Irish Sea for the Zelenskyy visit.

1. Good thing Zelenskyy's plane was early

This sounds like a definite Russian assassination attempt. The more desperate Putin becomes, the more frequent he's going to try this. And the Europeans better realize it could happen to any of them.

2. I hate that the first question I asked myself was

Were the drones ours?

5. Ditto

Trump probably believes that if he can kill Zelenskyy, Putin will love him more and all his troubles will go away. I hope the EU and NATO keeps him safe.

3. If they can get that close to a head of state, what stops them from getting to passenger planes?

4. Unidentified something something ...

CBS:
Unidentified drones breached Ireland's airspace during visit by Ukraine's Zelenskyy ... It comes after weeks of reports from other European nations of unidentified drones flying around key infrastructure, including airports and military facilities in Germany, Denmark and the Baltic states."

... but not a single one of those sightings of "drones" in Denmark has actually been identified as a drone. The dots have been identified as stars, planes or other very normal dots though. As a national public TV station reported:

... On Tuesday at the opening of the Parliament, the Prime Minister refused to answer whether she had personally seen "concrete evidence" that it was drones that closed the airspace over several Danish airports and military installations since September.
What is important is that we see the pattern in Europe instead of looking at the concrete events, Mette Frederiksen replied on Tuesday.
But have you seen concrete evidence?
If we make it a goal in itself that there must be concrete evidence, then we are focusing in the wrong place, she said.
While the majority of politicians refused to comment on the secret briefings on the activity in Danish airspace, several told TV 2 that they had never seen evidence that there were drones at play. ...
