The Islamic State’s propaganda arm recently released a new video of a quadcopter drone dropping a munition on a Syrian regime army depot in the Middle Euphrates River Valley.
The army depot was reportedly located in a local soccer stadium and appeared almost completely destroyed after the incident. ISIS has pioneered the use of low cost quadcopter drones in warfare prompting worry amongst the U.S. military and terrorism experts.
The Pentagon is so concerned about the threat from ISIS, it initiated a $700 million program aimed at countering commercial drones. The program includes using lasers to shoot drones out of the sky. The technology is in its infancy, however, and has yet to yield any significant results.
