Washington will for the first time host training exercises to detect small UAVs.
The residents of the American capital have already been warned that drones will fly over the city on November 10-12. The authorities will examine how the city's systems respond to the appearance of small UAVs. For this purpose, special UAVs will be launched into the air, which will have to detect radars and other surveillance equipment.
The mayor's office emphasized that the exercises are planned and are not related to any specific threat. Residents were asked not to panic at the sight of drones, but to report suspicious devices to the emergency services.
