The stories I read said that, in response to drone sightings - there were 93 (some sources report 92) eye-witnesses rated 'credible' - police drones were launched and that those additional drones may have added to confusion.
I can't find any reports that the original sightings were false or of police (or airport) equipment.
Military anti-drone equipment is now in place at Gatwick. There's still a GBP50,000 reward and police/airport management are still talking about lengthy jail time for the perpetrators ... if caught.
Sounds like they're still taking it pretty seriously.
