Why would human operators have to be close to the drones?

So, in this world, the future's wars are fought by drones and recruit teenagers with attitude, who control and repair drones in a temporary base near the front, and are frequently targets of surprise attacks. But why? What could prevent long distance teleoperation so that my child soldiers are forced into the war zone?

The setting is the near-future. Fusion reactors exist, laptops have practically infinite battery life, we have powered armor, which enhances the user's strength, speed and provides NIJ level 4 protection, weapons didn't change, just became more modular (Read: ar-15).
