Individuals Will No Longer Be Able To Operate Drones

The Civil Aviation Directorate General has suspended providing licenses for the use of unmanned aircraft (drones).

According to Al-Qabas, a local Arabic newspaper, orders were issued to limit drone permission to government entities alone until further notice. It went on to say that new rules are being put in place to avoid anarchy in the deployment of drones, whose impacts have become a menace to air traffic.

According to the source, anyone who conducts air operations without first acquiring the relevant licenses and approvals would be held legally liable.
