Iran Fires on US Drone

On Thursday, the Pentagon announced that one week ago an unarmed drone was fired upon, by Iran, as it flew over international waters.

Two Iranian jets fired twice in attempts to shoot down the drone.

They then chased the drone, but eventually gave up.

The drone was flown to a location where it could land, and be investigated for any harm, none was found.

A spokesman, for the Pentagon, said that, ""We have a wide range of options from diplomatic to military."

He further stressed the location of the drone, at the time of the attack, as being sixteen miles off the coast of Kuwait, several miles over international waters.

Some analysts have been quick to point out that such an incident could be considered an act of war.
