“The Taliban have drones? “
My neighbor has a 4 rotor drone that carries a camera, he says it has a range as far as he can see it, probably farther.
My point is, they are very common. I can see the Taliban having something really inexpensive (compared to ours), carrying cameras or having small explosive payloads. And, having small portable command stations (such as a truck) where they are flown from.
