# An elderly Ukrainian woman has disabled a high-tech Russian drone with her bare hands. Footage from the Zaporizhzhia region shows the grandmother calmly approaching the grounded kamikaze drone, which was lying in wait for a target. She disabled the device by ripping out its fibre-optic control cable, completely severing the pilot’s signal. While the video has gone viral, emergency services urge civilians not to copy her actions, warning grounded drones often carry active, highly sensitive explosives.
