This new report Drone  Wars: Out of Sight, Our of mind, Out of control – was launched last night at Friends House, London the latest resource from the Drone Campaign Network of which Pax Christi is a member.

Written by Chris Cole, Director of Drone Wars UK and Pax Christi Executive Committee member.  Chris says: Drones are at the forefront of the rehabilitation of the idea of war itself.  Through using remote systems and precision weapons, we are being told, war is no longer the hell it once was…”

 The report highlights some of the key issues surrounding the growing use of armed drones and makes a number of key recommendations to control their use.  Informative and accessible resource for peace campaigners!
