Iran's growing drone menace

The Islamic Republic of Iran, long held to be the world’s preeminent state sponsor of terrorism, is rapidly expanding its drone capabilities.

A recent study reveals how Iran has been increasing the scale and scope of its drone attacks. The report by the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs, a Washington D.C.-based think tank, warned that since 2022, “Iranian-backed militias have escalated their attacks, predominantly using drones, against U.S. service members and regional partners.”
