Ukraine’s DIY drone makers are helping fighters on the front lines

by admin

Biophysicist Oleh Halaidych, 34, helps make drones at a workshop in Kyiv. "I think we are all motivated because we see that this is a cheap and accessible way to make weapons," he says. "They kill the enemy and destroy his armored vehicles."
