How do you combat this?

Looks like those soldiers might benefit from carrying a shotgun with goose loads.

I have seen a few videos where these drones were shot down by shotgun blasts.

It went green right before impact.

I wonder if that is some sort of off effect of the lighting or if the operator had to "arm/detonate" the device.

What if one was able to use drones to intercept the attack drones? Imagine drones swarming various rotor craft. It seems a whole new kind of combat/conflict.

One of the most prophetic books — The Diamond Age, has battles described as cloud of nano-drones vs. cloud of nano-drones, with the few humans on the battle field in “knight-like armor”.

There was one airports were using that dropped a net over the "enemy" drone. There's one that's at least in prototype stages that fires a tethered net so it can bring the captured drone back with it. Not sure if they released a commercially viable unit or not.

I’m sure we’ve got some sort of cruise missile loaded with a swarm out there somewhere in hush hush land
