DUBAI (Reuters) – No US aircraft were shot down near Bushehr, Iran, despite a claim made on Iranian state TV, the US military said.
Iran's state TV said early on Friday that a US aircraft was destroyed in Iran's Jam governorate in Bushehr, citing its governor Masoud Tangestani.
"No US aircraft were shot down. All US air assets are accounted for," the US Central Command said in a post on X.
A US A-10 aircraft has been hit by Iranian air defenses, Iranian state media reported, citing Iran’s Army public relations office.
