The Public Relations Department of the IRGC said in a statement that its Aerospace Force units have targeted and destroyed the advanced MQ-9 drone of the US terrorist army with modern advanced defense systems, under the control of the country's integrated air defense network.

The American UAV has been shot down in the southern region of Iran.

The IRGC noted that the Iranian sky is completely unsafe for all enemy aircraft.

Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei and several top Iranian military commanders have been martyred in a Saturday attack by the criminal US-Israeli forces in Tehran.

The Iranian Armed Forces have responded to the US-Israeli aggression by launching massive missile and drone strikes on Israeli-occupied territories and American bases in the region.
