Honduras buys drones from Ukraine - to fight gangs

Kyiv has come to be called the drone capital of the world in recent years. The expertise that Ukraine has built up in the field has been sought after. After the outbreak of the war between Israel and Iran, several arms deals were concluded with countries in the Persian Gulf, and now the deals extend across the Atlantic.

Honduran President Nasry Asfura announces after a visit to Kyiv that the country is purchasing Ukrainian drones for border surveillance and to combat drug trafficking and organized crime, AFP reports.

“We are talking about drones to protect our borders, monitor them more effectively and fight organized crime with high-tech equipment,” says Asfura.
