Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says it has downed a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone in the Persian Gulf area. In statements cited by Turkish and Egyptian outlets, the IRGC also says its forces opened fire on a U.S. F-35 fighter jet and another drone that it alleges entered Iranian airspace. The IRGC does not provide specific timing details in the reporting. Separately, Egypt Independent reports that Iran warns of retaliation, framing the IRGC’s actions as a response to alleged ceasefire and airspace violations by the United States, after Washington carried out what it describes as an operation. The U.S. position is not detailed in the provided excerpts, and the account centers on Iran’s claims regarding the reported engagement and the alleged incursion. The incidents are therefore presented as Iran’s assertions of airspace violations and defensive actions in the region, with escalation risk highlighted by Iran’s warning of further response.
