Drone warfare refers to the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, to conduct military operations. These drones can be equipped with surveillance equipment or weapons, allowing for targeted strikes without putting pilots in harm's way. This technology has been increasingly utilized in conflicts around the world, providing real-time intelligence and precision targeting. The use of drones raises various ethical and legal questions, particularly regarding civilian casualties and the implications of remote warfare. Countries like the United States and Israel have employed drones in counterterrorism efforts, while international organizations continue to debate the regulations surrounding their use in combat situations.
