Ministry of Emergency Management promotes aeromagnetic “Spirit” drones detecting metal objects to aid search and rescue in the Gyirong mudslide disaster area

Official propaganda said the Ministry of Emergency Management put aeromagnetic “Spirit” drones into use in the Gyirong mudslide disaster area, flying low-altitude patrols that penetrate the rubble to lock onto metal objects with strong magnetic fields, providing coordinates for search and rescue, and claimed that weak magnetic field signals had already been detected.
