A state-owned news site says Iran has shot down an unmanned US spy plane over the Fordo uranium enrichment site in central Iran.
The
state TV-run Youth Journalists Club quoted lawmaker Ali Aghazadeh
Dafsari as saying Iran’s Revolutionary Guard shot down the plane.
Wednesday’s report did not say when the incident happened.
Iran
is locked in a dispute with the US and its allies over Tehran’s

Fordo is built next to a
military complex to protect it in case of an attack. Iran only
acknowledged its existence after Western intelligence agencies
identified it in September 2009.
