Iran hijacks several US drones flying over Syria, Iraq: IRGC commander

Iran has hijacked at least seven U.S.-made drones that were constantly flying over Syria and Iraq, according to an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commander.

Amir Ali Hajizadeh, a commander of Aerospace Force of the IRGC, said Tehran managed to hijack “seven to eight U.S.-made drone,” after intercepting incoming data and then retrieving it first-hand.

The IRGC published video footage “as proof” of what it said was the successful hijacking of the drones.
