On May 26 the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) announced that its air defense units had shot down a US MQ-9 drone over the Persian Gulf warning any violation of the ceasefire by US aggressors would be met with a severe response.
The IRGC Public Relations Department said the US terrorist army in continuation of its interventionist adventurism in the region and aggressive behavior entered Iran’s airspace in the Persian Gulf region. Following precise intelligence monitoring the IRGC air defense units identified and downed an MQ-9 drone while defending the country’s territorial airspace.
The statement further said that IRGC forces also fired at an RQ-4 drone and an intruding F-35 fighter jet forcing them to flee and leave Iran’s territorial airspace.
