AB The aim of this paper is to examine and discuss if the use of drones -when used as anoffensive weapon to end the life of suspected terrorists- validly falls within the scope of applicationof Article 51 of the UN Charter. In order to do so, the requirements established by the mentionedCharter will be duly analysed. Consequently, we will be able to conclude if drones are or are notfulflling the legal requirements requested by the right of self-defence, adjusting in the latter casethe interpretation of international law to the particular national interests of some countries.
