Ukraine and Russia have been the epicenter of drone strikes for the past few years
Cumulative number of drone strikes (with or without casualties) by country between 2020 and June 2025.
Note: This chart is based on the Conflict data compiled by ACLED. We filtered for all drone strikes, across all types of actors (states, militias, etc.). We chose this source because it is one of the most comprehensive. However, it is impossible to precisely count drone attacks and the number of resulting casualties. Other organizations publish their own tallies with widely varying results.
