"The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) has
begun using unmanned surveillance drones to monitor the conflict in
eastern Ukraine, which has claimed nearly 4,000 lives, including some
1,000 Ukrainian servicemen.
Two drones have been delivered so far and another two are on their way.
'The
idea is a 24/7 operation so there is always one in the air,' said OSCE
spokesperson for the Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine Michael
Bociurkiw.
The Camcopter S-100 is a 3.5 meter long unarmed mini-helicopter equipped
with a camera and radar equipment. The standard model can stay in the
air for up to six hours and is able to operate in snow-covered areas at
temperatures as low as -40 Celcius, according to Schiebel public
relations representative Andrea Blama."
This depends on the good will of both side not to shoot at the drones. Otherwise, good idea.
