ANKARA / ISTANBUL
Iranian state TV on Wednesday published visuals of what it claims to be an Israeli Hermes 900 drone shot down in the Isfahan province.
It reported that Iran's air defense units intercepted and downed the drone in the eastern part of Isfahan, adding that it was equipped with eight advanced missiles.
For its part, in a statement, the Israeli Army said that an Israeli drone had been shot down in Iran.
The drone was hit by an Iranian surface-to-air missile during nighttime operations, the army said, acknowledging that the aircraft crashed within Iran.
It added that there was no risk of any information being obtained from the downed drone.
Since the start of Israel’s attacks on Iran on June 13, Iranian sources have announced the downing of four Israeli fighter jets and many UAVs (drones) and UCAVs (armed drones).
However, no visual evidence of the aircraft had been shared until now.
Escalating conflict between Iran, Israel
On June 13, Israel launched large-scale attacks targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities across several cities, as well as high-ranking military command centers.
Iranian media reported Wednesday that the death toll from Israeli airstrikes across Tehran and other populated areas has risen to 585, with at least 1,326 people injured since the attacks started last week.
In retaliation, Iran’s military launched ballistic missiles at Israel, killing 24 people and wounding over 500, according to reports.
Numerous countries, including Türkiye, have condemned Israel’s actions.
