Iran: US ScanEagle drone 'captured over Gulf'
The Iranian military says it has captured an unmanned US drone aircraft in its airspace over Gulf waters.
The Revolutionary Guards said they had brought down a ScanEagle - one of the smaller, less sophisticated drones used by the Americans.
Rear Admiral Ali Fadavi told the Fars news agency that the drone had conducted several reconnaissance flights over the Gulf in recent days.
But the US Navy said none of its drones was missing in the Middle East.
