On the night of 5 January and into the early hours of the next day, Russian forces in Syria came under attack by a “massive application of unmanned aerial vehicles”, says the Russian Ministry of Defence. According to reports, 13 small drones descended on Russian forces, but none did significant damage.
Many drones carry a video camera and are then piloted remotely from just a few kilometres away. But Russia says this attack was launched from more than 50 kilometres away and the drones were guided by GPS. This would require the coordinates of the target to be known in advance.
