Manhyia Palace has banned the unauthorised operation of drones and other unmanned aerial vehicles within the palace and its surrounding areas.
The directive, contained in a notice posted on the palace’s Facebook page on Saturday, August 15, 2026, takes immediate effect.
The palace said no drone flights or other aerial activities would be permitted within the designated area without prior and explicit approval from the palace or the relevant authorities.
It warned that any drone operated without authorisation would be confiscated, while operators who breach the directive could also face legal action.
The palace has therefore urged drone operators and users of unmanned aerial vehicles to obtain the necessary approval before carrying out any aerial activities within the restricted area.
