“…..all Hermes missions will be halted in skies over Iran, Iraq, Syria, Palestinian territories and Lebanon.”-unnamed former U.S. military official in statement to Fars News Agency
Breaking news reports out of Iraq say Iraqi forces might have shot down an IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) drone over Baghdad. At the moment, Iraqi military officials are refusing to comment.
What seems to be sure is that an IDF drone has crashed near the Baghdad Airport. Reports say U.S. embassy security personnel are on scene, to prevent the drone from falling into ‘enemy’ hands.
News reports say it is the same type shot down by Iran on the 24th, which might also be the same type shot down by Palestinian Mujahideen in Gaza City.
