    The "kamikaze" drone is nothing new. In WW2 they were called "buzz bombs." The V-1 was the fore runner of both modern drones and cruise missiles. Ack-ack fire was mostly ineffective against them. RAF pilots had fun flipping them over by the wingtip maneuver to bring them down in the Channel when they were spotted. Taking that as a clue, what i feel is needed to counter these flying bombs is something like a Predator not armed with big expensive Hellfire missiles but light, cheap RPGs. It could use to chase and down enemy drones, an anti-drone drone. A good spotter network is a must. An effective anti-drone drone would escalate drone warfare to the point that cheap drones would no longer be effective and effective drones would no longer be affordable. Love your reporting, keep it up! Cheers!

      the keyword here is accuracy and to lesser extend human resources .one civilian is enough to input all the waypoint and target in all of these drones .another small group of soldiers
      can fire them and then totally forget about them there is very little burden on war fighting resources compared to buzz bombs .

    Why phrase the title as "Israel rejects ceasefire", whereas in fact it was Hamas who rejected Israel's proposal. The so called offer from Hamas, was in fact hamas's rejection

    How quickly the international community went from “Never Again” to telling the Jewish State to risk being victims again.

    Hamas has NEVER ever in a billion light years honored any agreement they signed. They started this tragic war and well.... if someone were to cook my infant in a microwave and call their friends in jubiliation.....
