The unnamed leader of a crime gang was taught how to make the uncrewed devices during a military course in his own country which employs drones to fight Russia’s army.

The parts for the drones, which had an autonomy of up to 31 miles (50km), were made by small companies in Ukraine and shipped in lorries to southern Spain
