Drone Surrender

No, the drones are nor waving white flags. 8/14/24 Forbes:
"Drones are creating a new type of warfare in Ukraine. The latest unexpected twist is ‘non-contact surrender’ in which a drone with a speaker and microphone approaches Russian troops and invites them to lay down their arms. They follow the drone back to Ukrainian lines where they are taken safely into captivity. There have been occasional spontaneous surrenders to drones in the past, but this looks like an organized campaign to take surrender remotely."

Advantages.  No worry that Russian soldiers pretending to surrender will open fire on Ukrainian soldiers.   Safer for both groups.  It is nice to see technology make war more humane
