Despite ongoing peace negotiations, the use of drones has resulted in attacks on non-combatants who are situated far from active conflict zones. This development raises serious concerns regarding the safety and protection of civilians amidst the protracted conflict, which has already resulted in widespread humanitarian challenges. Local authorities and humanitarian organizations are calling for urgent measures to safeguard civilians in the affected areas.
