Iran TV says footage disproves US report of downed drone

19 Jul, 2019

The video published by the Revolutionary Guards showed aerial views of warships.

The television station said the drone had captured the footage and timing notations showed the drone was still filming after Washington said it had been downed in the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump said on Thursday that the drone had flown to within 1,000 yards (900 metres) of the US warship Boxer and had ignored "multiple calls to stand down".
