伊朗击落美国无人机，海湾局势骤然紧张
On a tense day in June, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps shot down an American surveillance drone. The incident happened near the Strait of Hormuz, a key waterway for global oil shipments. It immediately increased fears of a direct military conflict between the two countries.
The drone was an MQ-1 Predator, used by the US military for spying missions. It was an unmanned aircraft that could fly for many hours. Iran claimed the drone had entered its airspace. But the United States insisted the drone was in international airspace over the open sea.
