He said the use of drones needs to be regulated as soon as possible to avoid a serious situation in the future.
The SLAF will work with the Navy to safeguard the country’s territory using helicopters as additional support, he said, adding that the SLAF also can help combat the entry of illegal drugs into the country, refugees and illegal fishing activities.
