An Israeli Air Force drone was shot down over the Khorramabad area in western Iran this morning, the IDF confirms, following Iranian media reports.
“During operational activity, an Air Force unmanned aerial vehicle was downed in Iran. There is no fear of information leaking,” the military says.
Iranian media reported that the drone was a Hermes model.
Last week, an IAF Hermes 900 UAV was shot down over the Isfahan area.
