A new threat from China faces Taiwan's military: Trolls with drones

Source: CNN With the sun shining, drinks on the table and music in the air, it looks like the young men in the video, which has gone viral on Chinese social media, have picked a great day for a picnic.
The island's military later confirmed these mysterious menaces are indeed civilian drones from mainland China.
That trip angered China's ruling Communist Party -- which views Taiwan as part of its territory, despite never having governed it -- and it responded by launching unprecedented military drills around the island, sending warplanes across the Taiwan Strait and firing missiles over the main island.
"(It's) designed to remind Taiwan that there's no escape from Chinese pressure, and that in the end, China will take over.
He said Taiwan could ask DJI, the China-based manufacturer whose logo appeared in a few of the trolling videos, to make the Kinmen islands a restricted area in its database -- a move that would prevent operators from being able to fly the drones there.
If they want to be in control, they better control these civilian drone operators first," Huang said.
