Iranian sources claim that Iran succeeded in downing an American aircraft near the Strait of Hormuz, according to reports. The claim is unverified and based on a single source. No details on the aircraft type, location, or time of the incident were provided. Iran has made similar claims in recent weeks — including the downing of a US drone, a fighter jet, and an attack drone — as The Zioneer has previously reported. The US has not confirmed any of those incidents.
