Iran claims to have intercepted and captured a ScanEagle drone, belonging to the US.
Footage shown of the drone was aired on Iranian TV.
According to Rear Admiral Ali Fadavi, Commander of the Revolutionary Guard, the drone was spotted a few days before and hunted down.
However, the US denies that is missing any drones, "The US Navy has complete control over every unmanned vehicle we operate in the Middle East", said Commander Jason Salata of the Fifth Fleet, which handles operations in the area.
He further suggested that the ScanEagle model is fairly easy to buy, so it could have belonged to anyone.
