The US Army has sent 10,000 AI-enabled Merops interceptor drones, originally developed for Ukraine, to the Middle East to help defend against Iranian drone attacks.
The drones cost about $14,000โ$15,000 each, with the potential to drop to $3,000โ$5,000 in larger ordersโfar cheaper than using missile defenses like Patriot or THAAD, which can cost over $4 million per intercept.
The US also deployed Bumblebee explosive quadcopters designed to hunt and crash into enemy drones.

Turkish President Erdogan:
We are acting with great caution against traps and provocations aimed at dragging our country into war.
We are focusing not only on the visible side of the events, but also on what is hidden behind the scenes; we are ruling out no possibility and analyzing everything down to the finest detail.
