Iran is increasingly relying on drones to strike targets across the Middle East, using unmanned systems that can be produced far more quickly and at a fraction of the cost of traditional missiles, CBS News' Holly Williams reports. One of the main drones being used is the Shahed drone, which costs an estimated $20,000 to $50,000 per unit, compared with missiles that can cost millions of dollars. The widespread use of drones is reshaping modern warfare, a trend already seen on the battlefield in Ukraine and now playing out across the Middle East.

As Iranian Shahed drones strike targets across the Middle East, Ukrainians are watching closely — and seeing a familiar threat, CBS News' Aidan Stretch reports from Kyiv. The same drone technology has been used repeatedly in Russia’s war on Ukraine, including attacks in the heart of Kyiv. After years of defending against them, Ukraine has developed some of the world’s most advanced counter-drone tactics, from low-cost interceptors to layered air defense systems. President Volodymyr Zelensky and defense experts say that experience is now critical as more countries confront Iranian-style drone warfare for the first time.

This compilation is of Ukrainian “Lyutyy” long-range strike UAVs being shot down at low altitude by Russian mobile ground fire units. The Russians previously experienced such losses from their Shahed (Geran-2) UAVs, until their altitude was raised to be too high for ground units.

‼️ China is learning modern warfare and recognizes that today’s wars are wars of drones. That’s why the country is actively pursuing innovation in this field. In the city of Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, the PLA Air Force held a military technology competition titled “Countering Drones - 2025.” The event is part of a major PLA Air Force program focused on developing counter-drone systems. Its goal is to stimulate technological innovation in this area and to shape a new generation of integrated air defense capabilities. A total of 109 teams from military units, research institutes, and civilian enterprises participated. They presented 144 projects, including interception systems, electronic warfare tools, detection systems, and autonomous control technologies. Forty-four interceptor drones underwent field testing - practical exercises in neutralizing unmanned aerial vehicles. Organizers emphasized that the purpose of the competition is to accelerate the integration of military and civilian technologies in drone warfare, create a platform for “military startups,” and identify promising solutions for rapid implementation in the armed forces.

This week alone, Ukraine's Defense Forces shot down 33 missiles, including ballistic ones, and 311 attack drones in our skies. Another 136 drones, used in daily strikes against infrastructure, failed to reach their targets. Heartfelt gratitude to all our warriors – military aviation, anti-aircraft gunners, electronic warfare units, and mobile fire groups. Our unwavering task remains to strengthen the defense of our skies. In total, over the past week, the Russian army has launched approximately 550 attack drones, nearly 60 missiles of various types, and more than 660 aerial bombs. More Patriot systems for Ukraine mean more protection of lives. Greater long-range capabilities for Ukraine mean stronger guarantees that Russia’s war can be stopped.

Presumably, the United States used “Shahed-like” (Low-Cost Unmanned Aerial System) Loitering Munition to strike targets in Venezuela on January 3 during Operation “Absolute Resolve.” In footage published by netizens, a distinctive engine sound can be heard before impact, similar to the noise produced by Shahed-136 or Geran-2 drones. If this is the case, then Venezuela has seen the first combat use of a new type of American loitering munition that has only recently entered service with the U.S. military.
