There are no more lines of battle. A drone could attack anywhere. A drone could drop a grenade bouquet down the hatch of oil tankers. It's weird the fighting is contained in Ukraine at all.

There very much is a line of battle, it's just that it's 5km thick.

Drones behind the lines are like missiles or long range artillery. But they don't prevent movement from the enemy.

Weapons and sensors will be developed to fight drones too. It'll just take a few years.
