Attack on energy system has failed
According to the FBI, a specially modified Chinese-made Mavic 2 drone was deployed to attack the US energy system, as a result of which millions of people could be left without electricity. The attack could damage critical infrastructure and deprive millions of people of access to electricity. The exact location of the incident still remains unknown for security reasons. The drone was equipped with two nylon ropes connected by copper wire. According to CNN, FBI experts believe the drone was supposed to fly over the substation and then attack transformers or distribution lines. If the entire operation were successful, thousands of nearby homes would be cut off from electricity. Fortunately, this did not happen, because the drone crashed into the roof of one of the houses. Later, the owners of one of the residential buildings detected the device and immediately notified the law enforcement agencies of the find. An investigation is underway.
