China's DJI halts Russia, Ukraine sales to prevent use of its drones in combat

Ukrainian officials and citizens have accused DJI of leaking data on the Ukrainian military to Russia – allegations the world’s largest maker of consumer and industrial drones has called “utterly false”.

A DJI spokesperson said on Wednesday its suspension of business in Russia and Ukraine was “not to make a statement about any country, but to make a statement about our principles”. A company representative said last month DJI was aware of footage online that suggested the Russian military was using its products, but it had not been able to confirm this and the company had no control over the use of its products.

Privately held DJI does not release financial information but research firm Drone Analyst has estimated that it had hardware revenue of US$2.9bil in 2020.
