Iranian sources claim that air defenses intercepted a U.S. unmanned aerial vehicle over Qeshm Island in the Persian Gulf. The report is unverified, and there has been no U.S. comment.
Iranian sources claim that air defenses successfully intercepted a U.S. unmanned aerial vehicle over Qeshm Island in the Persian Gulf. The report, which emerged at 01:27 Jerusalem time, is single-sourced and unverified. No independent confirmation or U.S. response has been reported. The claim follows a similar report one minute earlier that alleged a downing over Kish Island, though the location differs. The Zioneer has previously covered multiple Iranian claims of intercepting U.S. drones and missiles during the ongoing U.S. air campaign 'Operation Epic Fury,' but none have been independently confirmed. The credibility of the latest claim remains unclear, and the U.S. has not acknowledged any loss of drones over Iranian territory.
