Iranian forces downed an Israeli-made Hermes drone flying above the town of Lar in the south of the country on Wednesday, state television said, citing a statement from the Revolutionary Guards.

“Minutes ago, an advanced Hermes 900 drone was intercepted and destroyed in the sky over Lar, Fars Province, by fire from the Revolutionary Guards’ modern aerospace defence system,” the statement reported by broadcaster IRIB said.

It added that “the entry of any type of enemy American or Zionist aircraft into the country’s skies, even without conducting military operations, is considered a violation of the ceasefire and a decisive response will be given”.
