Iran has claimed that its air defense forces shot down a US MQ-9 Reaper drone over the city of Andimeshk in Khuzestan province. According to Iranian state media, the drone was destroyed by the country’s air defense system operated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The IRGC stated that the drone had entered Iranian airspace without authorization and was precisely targeted by its aerospace forces.
The IRGC described the incident as a demonstration of its new domestically developed air defense technology. The statement emphasized that the system used to destroy the drone was a newly added, advanced defense platform within Iran’s air fleet. The report cited Al Jazeera as its source but did not include any comment from the United States or independent verification of the claim.
The announcement highlights Iran’s continued focus on strengthening its air defense capabilities and signals ongoing tension in the region involving US military assets.
