"A few hours ago, an MQ-1 UAV belonging to the aggressor USA was intercepted and damaged by the new air defense system of the naval forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran Army, which operates in the unified network of the country's joint air defense headquarters, in the Kohstas area (Sirik coast) and was destroyed by the Iranian television and radio company," the report said.
The army said it will not hesitate for a moment to protect Iran's territorial integrity, borders and maritime interests.
