‘New generation war’: Ukrainian ’geeks’ turned guerrillas make frontline drones • FRANCE 24

A group of young Ukrainian ’geeks’ make drones in the basement of a house near the Donbas frontline. A short distance from their base and less than two kilometres from the Russian lines, a navigator and a pilot prepare a drone to drop a bomb on Russian positions. The group’s founder and leader,  Zmiy (“Snake“ in Ukrainian), is a bearded veteran of the 2014 conflict with Russia in the Donbas, eastern Ukraine. He says the group comprises about 40 men and women. #Ukraine #tech #drone 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: Like us on Facebook: Follow us on Twitter: Discover the news in pictures on Instagram:
