The semi-official Fars and the state-run IRNA news agencies reported that a U.S. ScanEagle drone was gathering information over Gulf waters and had entered Iranian airspace. The agencies said the drone was then captured by a naval unit of the Revolutionary Guards force. However a spokesman for U.S. Naval Forces Central Command in Bahrain denied the claim.
