Iran’s Shahed drones have become an increasing threat in the international arena, causing havoc in countries such as Ukraine and Israel. These cheap yet deadly drones have disrupted Red Sea shipping, posed a danger to U.S. troops in the Middle East, and created chaos in Ukraine.
The use of these kamikaze drones by Iran showcases the growing capabilities of the country’s military technology. The drones are equipped with explosives and are designed to crash into targets, causing significant damage and casualties. Their nimble and compact design allows them to evade detection and launch surprise attacks with devastating precision.
In Ukraine, the Shahed drones have wreaked havoc by targeting infrastructure and military installations, fueling tensions in the region. The drones have also been used to threaten Red Sea shipping, further destabilizing the already volatile region.
The growing presence of these Iranian kamikaze drones poses a significant threat to global security, as they are easily accessible and cost-effective for various actors to acquire. The international community must remain vigilant and take necessary measures to mitigate the threat posed by these deadly weapons.

Its easier to stop war, unnecessary war.
are the interception projectiles cheaper than the drone
50k a pop in production cost – what's the sales price?
2:20 You mean Iran doesn't have a bunch of greedy, corrupt companies that jack the price up to insane levels because they know the government prints money? Like that bag of scres that cost like 50,000$ for military jeeps.
Temu switchblade?
$2.5 million dollar missiles shooting down a $50k drone …lol. Not sustainable.
Seriously they are not suicidal drones. Stop calling them that.
Belive me, That dron does not cost the goverment $2000. This is truth
WSJ is promoting terrrorism….this report is NOT sourced…no reporters names are provided…unsupstaniated claims…does anyone take responsibility for this at the WSJ…

Shaan's face looks like an upside down light bulb. It's so round on the bottom and square on top lol
But the US has almost 1 trillion military budget! 😂
Its hard to believe the mighty Russian bear superpower is still struggling into 3 years.
We dont have anything like this in the west because theres no money to be made off them.
Propaganda video.
you're telling me a Reaper drone is more expensive than a G5 jet plane…? American defense contractors are ripping off American government badly… thats why its called a reaper… lol.
The American war industry is not interested on cheap and effective weapons! 🤣🤣🤣
As simple as that!
If they make a stealth ones, inspired by the ww2 Horton ho229 or similar – made of wood,etc
The way the west underated these drones before 😂😂😂😊😊
So these Iranian drones are just like the US perdix hivemind micro drones that cost $15k
How WSJ able to get close up high definition video of the drone and it truck… hmmm….
Single-source story, 'eh? I thought the Wall Street Journal was supposed to be better than that.
a decade ago the west was laughing at iranian military technology. now the underdog rises!!!!!!!!!! multipolar world here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
us drones suck, if only the gov supported makers like in the east
If the American MIC made these they would be minimum $2 million each. 😂
using a $100k+ missile to shoot down a $5k drone is brain dead stf
Expensive US technology is wrecking havoc in Palestine and Russia
yeh yeh and idf is the most professional army with love in their hearts.
$50K is the price of the Iron Dome rockets that the US taxpayer provides to shoot down Shahed drones.
I guess you got your numbers mixed up.
What do you think only America has technology
Shameless news editor
Fear the lawnmower.
Every weapon system can be counteracted at some point. The biggest problems with these are countering swarms of drones at once.
Iran has all these drones…………Courtesy of The JOKE Biden CARTEL
Yo not 6000 drones it’s 60000 drones.
Sad that humanity from all sides and perspectives has made all of this technology just to go boom, literally just to explode. Great use of brain power!
If only we could use the same ambition and brain power to work through disagreements about historical land lines.
Iran doesn’t want that smoke. Hezbollah got annihilated by Israel strikes.
