Abstract :
New technologies, including automatic and self-propelled UAVs, have always been discussed, whose application and use are subject to one of the rules of international law, and whether current international law is at all capable of responding to advances Scientific and military, and new technologies. The research is based on this assumption and seeks to state that modern technologies, such as UAVs, are subject to international law and require no new legislation or regulation. The study looked at UAVs at three levels of international air law and the Chicago Convention, International Humanitarian Law, and the important rules of these rights and multilateral export control regimes, and the role of UAVs in each of these three areas. And concludes that current international law has the ability to monitor and implement UAVs with current rules in the three areas mentioned.
