According to the report, drone strikes are blasting cities in ever greater numbers. Troops, already in short supply, are all needed on the front, where the Russians are slowly advancing. So, Ukraine is exploring another solution to defend the rear. Interceptor drones have proven cost-effective at taking down Russian long-range attack drones of the Shahed variety. Ukraine also has many thousands of civilian volunteers serving part-time in Territorial Defense, Euromaidan Press media outlet reports. Dignitas has been working with defense officials to put together a legal framework to enable these units to operate as air defenders.

It is crucial if this is the situation Russian troops are facing every day, most likely, the soldiers will perish without a trace.

 
Reports about growing drone strikes and Ukraine’s use of interceptor drones and territorial volunteers capture how warfare is evolving. In my view, relying on inexpensive interceptors and mobilized volunteers is both pragmatic and morally complex. Pragmatic because low-cost countermeasures can blunt the impact of expensive long-range drones, preserving critical infrastructure and lives. It also shows adaptive resilience—using technology and community willingness to defend the homeland. Morally complex because deploying civilians, even in territorial defense roles, risks blurring lines between combatants and noncombatants and may increase civilian casualties if volunteers are insufficiently trained or legally protected. Governments should prioritize training, legal safeguards and clear rules of engagement before scaling such programs. At the same time, international partners must accelerate delivery of technical solutions that minimize risk to volunteers. Ultimately, defending populated areas against drone attacks demands both smart technology and strong ethical safeguards to protect those who step forward and families.
