Iran’s navy said on Friday that it shot down a US MQ-1 Predator drone over the Strait of Hormuz, according to Iranian media.
The semi-official IRNA news agency reported that the drone was downed near the Sirik coast in the Kuhestak region.
The navy said it “will not hesitate for a moment” to defend Iran’s territorial integrity, maritime borders and interests.
Images shared by IRNA appear to show damaged components of military hardware.
