• As you can probably tell from this article, the latest ISIS tactic is to use small drones with home made bombs or missiles with earth impact triggers which killed and wounded these people. The problem with this is likely the drone was not damaged and just flew back to reload with more bombs or missiles for use on someone else. I think this is the future of terrorism not only in the middle East but also in Europe and the U.S. where no perpetrators will be found because they will be using reusable small drones with bombs or missiles. However, in places like the U.S. or Europe it is also possible to Jam transmissions on such drones or to use EMP devices to bring such drones falling out of the sky. However, if you do this everything electrical will fail including cars, trucks, heart pacemakers, cell phones,refrigerators, TVs, toasters in use, etc. if you use an EMP device to bring down drones. So, in order to save lives it might be necessary to destroy thousands and thousands of dollars of electrical equipment and if a heart pacemaker went out people might die anyway in Europe or the U.S.

  Islamic State drones.

  
  

  Nineveh (IraqiNews.com) Three grocers died Wednesday and four others were wounded when a drone guided by Islamic State militants dropped two rockets on a marketplace in eastern Mosul.
  Anadolu Agency quoted Birg. Gen. Rakan al-Ameri, from the army’s Counter-Terrorism Forces, as saying that the drones targeted a popular market in Nabi Yunus district, one neighborhood retaken during security campaigns that launched in October.
  He said the group had made use of inability to address what he described as a “security gap” in areas recaptures by security forces from Islamic State militants.
  Since Iraqi government troops became in control of eastern Mosul late January, IS fighters, who fled to strongholds in the west, waged occasional attacks on the liberated areas in the east, either by fighters crossing from the west via the Tigris River or by sending bomb-supplied drones. Militants, some security personnel and civilians were killed in those attacks.
  Government troops are awaiting orders from the supreme command to invade the west, with the generals occasionally reiterating that combat plans were ready for the next move.
  Consummating the recapture of Mosul would represent the biggest blow to the group which still, however, maintains smaller hideouts in Anbar, Salahuddin and Kirkuk
