The United States Central Command (CENTCOM) rejected on Thursday, November 7, the claim of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to seize an American drone of the "espionage and deception" type. Centcom spokesman Tim Hawkins told the Associated Press: "Over the past weeks and months, the Revolutionary Guards have lied over and over again out of desperation, and today is no different." Earlier that day, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed to have captured an American MQM-170 UAV west of the Strait of Hormuz.
