The Daesh's news agency claimed Monday that a US military aircraft had been shot down in the vicinity of the Ayn al-Asad Airbase in Iraq's western province of Al Anbar, but officials have rejected the claim.
"US warplane downed near Ayn Asad Airbase in western Anbar," the Amaq news agency said. "The crew of the US warplane that was shot down by Daesh fighters near Ayn Asad Airbase is dead," it added in a second update.
