A U.S. official claims that an Iranian boat fired a surface-to-air missile at a U.S. drone prior to the attack on tankers in the Gulf of Oman.

 

The official went on to say that the missile missed the drone and then fell into the water. Prior to taking fire, the American MQ-9 drone observed Iranian vessels closing in on the tankers, the official added in their discussion with CNN, though the source did not say whether the unmanned aircraft saw the boats conducting an actual attack.

 

The same official also stated that in the days prior to the attack, a U.S. reaper drone was shot down in the Red Sea by what was believed to be an Iranian missile fired by Houthi rebels.
