If they were made by DJI, I would say it was, "Karma." (pun intended)

We'll never know the cause unless something solid comes out of the investigation - if there is one and if they decide to publish the results. GPS jammers do exist so that is a definite possibility.

I "think" if it were "jammers", all of them would drop.

Don't care. They weren't Mavics!

Think again.
Losing GPS or getting false GPS data doesn't cause a drone to fall from the sky.
