href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/kash-patel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kash Patel<\/a> said on Saturday that the Trump administration is ramping up its efforts to combat the growing threat posed by drones used by criminal networks, terrorist groups and foreign adversaries, launching a new national training program to help law enforcement detect and stop unlawful drone activity.<\/p>\n<p>Patel said the bureau has invested significant time and resources this year into modernizing its capabilities to counter unmanned aircraft systems (UAS).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Unmanned aircrafts are increasingly exploited by criminals, terrorists, and hostile foreign actors \u2014 making the counter UAS program a critical area for the FBI to modernize and adapt to stay ahead of the threat,&#8221; Patel wrote on X.<\/p>\n<p>Patel said that President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Donald Trump<\/a> signed an executive order in June that led to the creation of a National Counter-UAS Training Center, which the FBI operates out of its Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama.<\/p>\n<p><a

director<\/a> said the new training center prepares law enforcement to safely detect, identify, track, and mitigate unlawful drone activity when legally authorized, in compliance with the National Defense Authorization Act passed by Congress this year.<\/p>\n<p>Patel said the facility will play a key role in preparing security operations for major upcoming events in the U.S., including the 2026 FIFA World Cup and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/sports\/olympics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2028 Summer Olympics<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is an investment that will
