Iranian forces shot down a drone belonging to a foreign country today, an Iranian official said.
"The downed drone definitely belonged to a foreign country. Its wreckage has been recovered and is being investigated," IRNA cited governor of Iran’s Khuzestan province Gholamreza Shariati as saying.
Iranian media earlier reported that the army had shot down a drone over the Gulf port city of Mahshahr in Khuzestan province, without providing further details.
The official and Iranian news outlets did not say whether it was a military or civilian drone, or from which country it came.
