Extra: World Cup Security And The New Drone Threat

Militarized drones have drastically changed the battlefield—but the rapidly evolving technology is also creating dangerous new threats right here at home. With massive summer events on the horizon, including the World Cup and the upcoming UFC match on the White House South Lawn, detecting and deterring potential attacks from above has become a top priority for national security officials. Drone expert, former Delta Force intelligence analyst, and FOX News Contributor Brett Velicovich joined FOX News’ Lucas Tomlinson on the FOX News Rundown recently to break down how easily adversaries can acquire and weaponize these devices. Velicovich also explains how ongoing global conflicts—like the war in Ukraine and tensions with Iran—are serving as a testing ground for rogue drone tactics, and whether U.S. security officials are truly prepared to protect the homeland. We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full conversation.
