Colombian drug cartels are attempting to send their people to fight in Ukraine to learn how to operate FPV drones, the Financial Times reports.
According to the publication, criminal groups want to borrow Ukrainian experience in using strike drones, so they can later use these skills against the Colombian army.
Ukrainian military forces have already identified several Colombians connected to organized crime and sent them back.
In recent years, drones have dramatically changed the nature of the conflict in Colombia. Where the army previously dominated airspace, cartels and insurgents are now increasingly attacking troops with unmanned aircraft and seeking to master more advanced technologies developed during the war in Ukraine.
