No evidence that U.S drones were shot down in the Persian Gulf. That’s the word from the Pentagon. But Iran is claiming that it took out two Western drones in the Gulf. Reuters reports, the last time a U.S. drone crashed in the Gulf was in 2009 after a mechanical failure. Pentagon spokesman Colonel Dave Lapan says there are “no recent reports that would corroborate what the Revolutionary Guard said about unmanned aerial vehicles.”
