Criminal and legal aspects of using unmanned technologies in logistics

Abstract. Introduction. In the modern world, drone technologies fundamentally transform the logistics industry, significantly increasing efficiency and delivery speed. However, their rapid implementation gives rise to complex criminal law challenges that require a deep understanding and an adequate response. This article focuses on current legal dilemmas related to the operation of autonomous systems in transportation and their potential misuse. Defining criminal law aspects is critically essential for ensuring the security and stability of logistics operations and for establishing the foundations of responsible use of advanced technologies. Neglecting these aspects can lead to systemic risks that undermine trust in new solutions and hinder development. Therefore, the scientific search for effective legal mechanisms is an urgent need. Objective. The research's main aim is to comprehensively analyze the criminal law aspects of using drone technologies in logistics during 2020-2025, identify typical offenses, and determine ways to improve legislation for effective prevention and counteraction to crimes. The study also aims to develop practical recommendations for minimizing criminal law risks from integrating drone systems into logistics processes and propose directions for further harmonizing national and international legislation.
