But drones, as a new developing technology, have created significant challenges in the field of surveillance and have seriously threatened privacy, safety and security. The use of drones as weapons is also associated with challenges that can lead to the violation or threat of human rights. In this study, an attempt has been made to examine the applications and uses of drones more closely. The existence of drones in the framework of international law has been investigated and the impact of current international law in dealing with scientific, military and new technological developments has been evaluated. Method: This research was carried out in terms of practical purpose and in terms of gathering information by documentary method and through the study of valid laws and sources, and the obtained information was analyzed in a descriptive-analytical manner. Findings: Drones as a new technology have wide applications in various fields, including the protection of human rights to the violation of human rights. Despite the efforts to use this technology optimally, there are great challenges such as privacy, security and safety that require the development of legal and technological solutions in the international field.
