Technology and innovation must be embraced so that we work faster and smarter for our residents,\u201d said Winde.<\/p>\n<p>SANParks and the Central Karoo district municipality are also expected to get drones in the \u201cnot-so-distant future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The drones, valued at R18,000 each, include various specifications and functions, including handheld control, onboard camera, visual screen, recording ability and more.<\/p>\n<p>The drones were donated to the Western Cape Department of Police Oversight and Community Safety by the Consulate General of the People\u2019s Republic of China to boost crime-fighting efforts in the province.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe extend our gratitude to our international partner, as it shows their interest in seeking to ensure that greater safety is achieved across the entire province,\u201d Allen said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have already established our K-9 and Rural Safety Units on the West Coast, Overberg and Garden Route regions, and these drones will also complement and enhance their operations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Posting to Twitter\/X, Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi also highlighted the official launch of the SAPS\u2019s drone operations around Johannesburg.<\/p>\n\r\n                <style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n                    \r\n                    #td_uid_1_69d5fbfced470  .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item1 {\r\n
