Organisers of the 2018 Winter Olympics will reportedly use “drone-catching drones” to intercept any potential safety threats via air in Pyeongchang amid concerns the devices could be used to interrupt competition. Ryan Young of Yahoo Sports reported the Winter Games’ safety division, the Pyeongchang Olympics anti-Terrorism and Safety Headquarters, will use drones to catch other drones if one is detected approaching an event via radar. It’s said their drones will deploy a net to inhibit any airborne craft that encroach upon the events in Pyeongchang, although more rigorous measures—such as helicopters—are also available. MailOnline’s Harry Pettit reported organisers of the Winter Olympics fear terrorists may look to use the remote-controlled machines to carry “bombs toward crowd members or athletes.” The Games’ security detail is said to be 60,000 strong—including 50,000 South Korean soldiers—and a SWAT team recently conducted a successful practice drill involving a drone sending a bomb toward a bus with athletes aboard.2018 Winter Olympics Security Will Use ‘Drone-Catching Drones’ in South Korea
