Saeed bin Zayed highlights Emirati tech in Ecuador's drug fight
Ecuador has announced the adoption of an AI-powered monitoring system from the UAE-based "Edge" Group to enhance border security and combat drug trafficking and organized crime. The system aims to improve the detection and analysis of suspicious movements in key areas along Ecuador’s borders with Colombia and Peru, particularly at the northern "Rumiñahui" crossing and the southern "Huaquillas" crossing. Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa emphasized that the system will be capable of processing information in real-time to reduce smuggling, which accounts for 75% of the cocaine arriving through the northern border. He believes that AI technology will be more efficient than deploying 50,000 soldiers for traditional border patrols. This cooperation reflects the UAE leadership’s vision in the security and technology sectors and reinforces international confidence in the UAE’s technological capabilities.
