Drones bring many new opportunities and can be a lot of fun to use. However, they can also be pesky and even dangerous. As some companies turn to drones to drive innovation, other companies are driving innovation in developing new ways to take drones out of the sky. Thousands of new drone users are registering every day in China, and one company called Bei Dou Open Lab has developed a new drone gun to deal with flying menaces. As China increases restrictions on unauthorised drone flights over public safety fears, Bei Dou Open Lab showcased their innovative counter drone technology to crack down illegal drone flights. The new anti-drone system is powered by smartphones and can be safely used at large, public gatherings. It tracks down drones with a simulated GPS signal and guides them safely to the ground.
Taliban fighters stand guard near a destroyed car with a launcher system still visible in the back seat. A suspected US drone strike had hit the car, about two kilometres (1.2 miles) from Kabul's airport. Rockets were fired at the airport on Monday where US troops were racing to complete their withdrawal from Afghanistan and evacuate allies under the threat of Islamic State group attacks. IMAGES
Thousands of people gather in Mawlamyine, capital of Myanmar's Mon state, despite growing tension with the police and the arrests of several anti-coup demonstrators. These images were filmed before clashes ocurred between protesters and police. IMAGES
Georgia voters in the runoff elections will determine control of the US Senate. Many are confident that the votes will be counted accurately, according to CNN. That is a sharp contrast with the 3/4th who say the election in November was conducted fairly. These views are sharply divided by party, which is not much of a surprise. Both Republican candidates for Senate have expressed support for rejecting Electoral College votes. President-elect Joe Biden won by fewer than 12,000 votes in Georgia.
Tens of thousands of opposition supporters march through Minsk, calling for an end to strongman Alexander Lukashenko's rule amid a heavy security presence and despite dozens of arrests. Belarus protests have entered a third week since the disputed presidential election on August 9 in which Lukashenko claimed victory. IMAGES
