They tried to move it to safety: New details on fatal IDF drone blast
New details indicate two IDF reservists were killed while moving a fallen explosive drone away from fellow troops, despite switching off its remote control
Assessment
Two reservists died doing exactly what the manual likely prescribes: isolating a fallen drone and moving it away from others. That the remote control was off and it still detonated raises hard questions about what other safeguards failed. The investigation should clarify whether the blast was triggered by movement, a timer, or a second charge.
