    I’m honestly surprised we haven’t seen an assassination by drone from a nonstate actor yet.

    There was the 2018 Caracas drone attack. Though that one is somewhat muddy in whether it actually was an assassination attempt or a false-flag attack done by the government itself.

      That is interesting. I bet it was a legitimate attack, but the government’s attempt to cover up their embarrassment (particularly the fleeing “guard”) has muddied the water, as any cover-up will do. I must have missed that one at the time.
