Summary
Drones are buzzing into trouble at the World Cup—law enforcement has intercepted nine illegal flights in restricted zones around stadiums and Fan Fest areas, with 14 incidents since Tuesday. The FBI and FAA are cracking down hard, warning that flying drones in these zones is not just against the law but dangerously risky. Officials urge drone users to check airspace restrictions via apps like B4UFLY before taking off, as penalties for violations can be severe. This crackdown underscores the need for responsible flying during major events to keep fans, players, and infrastructure safe. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
