BS. Though a RPG could travel 1km (not sure), I know for sure that an effective RPG range is 300-400 m, after which accuracy degrades substantially.

And even if you try walking up the fiber cables (if you manage to spot them), you will become a target yourself much earlier than you manage to locate the origin of the fiber, i.e. the drone crew.

So, that wouldn't work.

An automatic grenade launcher firing 40 mm rounds can reach up to 2 km on a parabolic trajectory.

It'd take a lot of grenades, but there are videos from the Ukraine war of Ukranian infantry landing hits at range on Russian positions using drone spotters.
