Although McDonald managed to return to his ski and make it back to shore, Kelly remains missing.
A large search and rescue operation was subsequently launched but he has yet to be found.
A Givealittle page set up by Kelly s family to support volunteers and assist with bringing more resources in to search to bring Jordan home has so far received more than $34,000. We are so incredibly thankful for all of the words of support, messages and offers of help, the family wrote on the page. We are especially grateful to the Brisbane Water Police who have been leading the search mission, and all the other incredible volunteers from other organisations and community groups involved.
Autonomous drones can fly themselves to a specific location, pick their own targets and kill without the assistance of a remote human operator. The U.N. says such a drone was in the air in March 2020.
Police refuse to confirm reports a second ski has been found in the search for Jordan Kelly, 26, who disappeared while paddling around North Stradbroke Island on Saturday.
