Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has claimed it shot down a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone over the Strait of Hormuz, asserting that the unmanned aircraft was tracked and neutralised before it could pose a threat to Iranian territory. According to IRGC-linked outlets including IRNA and Sepah News, a “modern and advanced” air defence system was deployed in the interception over one of the world’s most critical energy chokepoints. There has been no immediate confirmation from the United States regarding the reported loss, leaving the claim unverified but highly consequential. The incident underscores rising tensions in the Gulf, where surveillance operations, military signalling, and strategic messaging are intensifying around the sensitive Hormuz corridor. #iran #usiran #mq9reaper #dronewar #hormuz #straitofhormuz #irgc #usdrone #breakingnews #geopolitics #military #gulfcrisis #iranvsus #worldnews #defense #airdefense #middleeast #globaltensions #usmilitary #iranmilitary In this Tim
