Colombian drug cartels are gaining experience in Ukraine in conducting warfare with FPV drones. The Financial Times writes that militants are trying to acquire FPV drone piloting skills that the Ukrainian military has honed over years of full-scale war. According to the publication, some foreigners with criminal ties have already been identified and barred from training. Colombian authorities acknowledge that drones have fundamentally changed the armed conflict in the country, and that the cartels are attempting to adopt the Ukrainian experience. As early as last year, Mexican media, citing sources in law enforcement, claimed that members of the CJNG cartel traveled to Ukraine to train in operating combat drones and in urban warfare tactics.
