LONDON, United Kingdom: The UK government on Thursday announced new 400-meter drone no-fly zones around prisons to combat the smuggling in of drugs and mobile phones.

Those breaching the rules could face up to 10 years in prison as part of measures the government hopes will cause a 'major disruption to criminal gangs'.
