US EditionEuropol Warns of AI-Powered Crime and 'Bot Bashing'
Europol report warns of limited counter-drone capacity and regulatory gaps, urging EU law enforcement coordination and investment to address rising unmanned system threats by 2035.
- Europol published a new report examining law enforcement use of unmanned systems and unlawful drone activity, urging EU Member States to develop a coordinated strategy with common safety and security standards.
- Rapid innovation has meant growing security concerns from wider drone access and Russia's war on Ukraine, while rules mainly target remotely piloted systems, leaving autonomous unmanned operations unregulated.
- Europol found limited counter-UAS capacity with gaps in technology, training, data sharing, and infrastructure, noting missing mandatory remote identification systems and no standardised geofencing standards.
- To close gaps, it calls for physical 'sandbox' testing environments, a central competence hub, standardised procurement and joint investment processes, plus law enforcement personnel training.
- Looking to 2035, Europol projects a shift to drone swarms and more use by organised crime groups, stressing forensic investigation requirements and risks from non‑EU suppliers without joint EU standards.
