The drone designed for intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition and reconnaissance was downed while it was carrying out a reconnaissance drone operation above the area early on Friday, Yemeni media outlets reported.
The US military acknowledged the videos circulating online showing what appeared to be a flaming aircraft dropping out of the sky and a field of burning debris in what those off-camera described as an area of Yemen’s al-Jawf province. The military said it was investigating the incident, declining to elaborate further.
