Kuwait City: The Directorate General of Civil Aviation has announced that it has stopped issuing permits for the use of drones for private purposes. With this, the permission for individuals to operate drones will be revoked. Under the new decision, drone licenses will be restricted to government agencies. The new move comes as camera-equipped drones pose a threat to the privacy of the country and its people. 


Authorities have warned that strong legal action will be taken if the drones are flown without obtaining the necessary licenses and permits. Earlier, there were widespread complaints that the use of drones was disrupting air traffic.
