The FAA restricted flights around Fort Hancock, Texas, after reports of a military laser system mistakenly downing a U.S. government drone.

Lawmakers criticized the Pentagon for lack of coordination following the incident. The FAA cited "special security reasons" for the airspace restrictions near the Mexican border.

It's believed that the Pentagon's high-energy laser system hit a Customs and Border Protection drone, which often encounters Mexican drones linked to drug cartels.

Flight restrictions will remain until June 24, but emergency flights can be authorized.

Again? Didn't this just happen and the administration immediately claimed it was because a cartel drone went over the airport?

we're at the "shooting down our own drones" level of this incompetent administration.

It probably isn't our government if it keeps happening. Most likely a foreign actor and the government wants to keep it quiet.

Protocols not being in place to prevent this sort of thing is a failure of leadership, yes.

If Trump's appointees are so fucking incompetent we're in Right Hand vs Left Hand territory, yes that is his fault.
