I think Isaac Asimov would be a little upset that his first law of robotics has been totally ignored by all.
Though this seems like a new step in drone/robot use.
The Guardian reported in 2013 that one product, the “Switchblade,” had been advertised as “the ultimate assassin bug,” allowing law enforcement to pilot a small drone and then lunge it forward and kill a target.

Was his first law of robotics, do no harm to humans?

Yeah, you got it more or less.
A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
