An Israeli-made surveillance balloon is being used by the Paris municipal police to help guard the global climate change summit that is currently underway in Paris.

Yavne-based company RT LTA’s SkyStart 180 aerostat is in the air over the French capital, providing mid-range surveillance and public security services to French police, which leased the balloon from RT and the French company Group SSI.

The balloon can operate continuously for up to 72 hours, and can reach an altitude of up to a thousand feet.
