The Federation Council approved the law on the right of security forces to shoot down drones

It is reported by TASS.

It is noted that the corresponding document gives, in particular, the FSB, the FSO, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the SVR and the Russian Guard as the right to destroy drones "including by suppressing or converting remote control signals, affecting their control panels, as well as damaging or destroying such vessels."

Earlier, the State Duma adopted in the third, final reading a law allowing security officials to destroy violating drones.

In October, the general director of the Research and Development Institute for Long-Range Radio Communications (part of the RTI), Kirill Makarov, said that Russia was creating a radar station that would be able to detect drones made of plastic and wood.
