Does 3 unrelated people simultaneously ruining my enjoyment of a public space by doing ‘drone photography’ count?

Would russian/Ukrainian attacks count? Why /why not?

@ElliotDavies This market feels pretty volatile to me until this gets clarified. But as written, they should count if there is no further detail given. Kyiv has been swarmed multiple times since market creation, but the creator was last active over a year ago. @GensingGenis
