Air defence systems detected the drone entering island’s airspace, leading to its destruction. Operation carried out under Iran’s integrated air defence command responsible for protecting country’s airspace.

Earlier, IRGC claimed downing of US MQ-9 drone over Persian Gulf, alleging it attempted interventionist activities in region. Iranian officials said intelligence monitoring allowed air defence units to identify and engage the aircraft while defending airspace.

IRGC also claimed attempts to target RQ-4 surveillance drone and F-35 fighter jet that approached Iranian airspace, but both reportedly turned back before entering country. Authorities warned of firm response to any violation or intrusion into airspace. Claims unverified; no immediate comment from US or Israeli officials.
