The US Army shot down with lasers three drones near the border with Mexico
The Sedena confirms that the operation was carried out in the Texas part of the border with Reynosa against devices "used by undocumented traffickers for the surveillance of authorities".
The US Army shot down three drones this week that were flying over the Texas part of the border with Mexico. The drones were reportedly used by drug cartels to monitor border points. The Mexican Defence Secretariat confirmed the incident as part of coordinated "mirror operations" with US authorities. The operation was carried out through a military base in Reynosa, suggesting the drones were downed on the US side of the border in the State of Tamaulipas.
