DJI phantom style drone converted into a sacrificial munition, image was posted in 2021 and is from greater #Idlib, #Syria. Armed groups active in Syria and Iraq were among the first non-state actors to employ COTS UAVs on a wide-scale for both ISR and delivering munitions.

attacks or to find information relevant to them. It's noteworthy that the teenagers plans appear to have gone undetected. Given that they had been planning for months without triggering a security mechanism, this is a major issue.
