France

Reporter tagged in drone incident

An Al-Jazeera journalist will face court for illegally flying a drone in Paris, amid a spate of drone flyovers that have confounded French authorities with heightened security concerns. Al-Jazeera said the reporter for the network's English channel was filming a report on the recent, unexplained sightings of drones over the city. Flying drones without a license in France is illegal and carries a maximum one-year prison sentence and a 75,000 euros ($85,000) fine.
