Cambodian authorities issued a directive Monday to ban camera-equipped drones in Phnom Penh saying that they affect people's privacy and security.
"To ensure the respect for the rights of people and to maintain security, safety and public order, the Phnom Penh municipality decides to ban camera-equipped drones from flying airspace from now on," the directive said.
The prohibition came after private television stations and some individuals used camera-equipped drones to take photographs or to film at private places, Xinhua reported.
"Violators will be punished in accordance with the law," Phnom Penh municipality's spokesman said.
