In order to effectively counter unlawful activities on the border with Romania and Moldova, units of Chernivtsi Border Guard Detachment are actively utilizing unmanned aviation.

Modern technical tools assist border guardians in promptly detecting and documenting the illegal actions of offenders.

All operators of aerial vehicles conducting aerial monitoring have undergone relevant training at an educational center, where they have learned various tactics for using unmanned aerial vehicles. The range of application for "airborne eyes" is quite broad. Drone operators can transmit real-time information about the detection of individuals and vehicles in border areas, coordinate the actions of border patrols during the apprehension of border violators, conduct search operations, and survey hard-to-reach mountainous areas.

Thus, in October of this year, in the division sector "Seliatyn", a drone operator captured the movement of two individuals towards the state border. By coordinating the actions of the response group, the border guard led them directly to intercept the violators, who were subsequently apprehended. Later, in the same border sector, using UAVs, two violators of the border regime were detected. Later law enforcement officers detained them and held administratively accountable.

In addition, this week, a border patrol of "Kelmentsi" division, using a drone, spotted a car heading towards the border with Moldova, circumventing BCPs. Once again, timely information transmission and coordinated actions of the border patrols led to the apprehension of the violator who was attempting to illegally enter the neighboring country.

In total, as a result of operational and service activities since the beginning of the year, the military personnel of the detachment, including through the use of UAVs, have apprehended over 1800 border violators who were attempting to illegally enter Romania and Moldova, bypassing the checkpoints.
