Beijing Bans Drone Ownership, Mandates Disposal by November 15

Beijing has enacted regulations prohibiting the ownership or storage of drones within its territory, requiring residents to dispose of them or relocate them outside the capital by November 15. This marks a significant tightening of domestic drone controls, likely aimed at security and public safety concerns. The move signals a broader regulatory trend in China's urban governance, though enforcement and impact on commercial drone use remain uncertain.
