"The U.S. military confirmed on Thursday that one of its drones was shot down but said the incident took place in international airspace, challenging Iran's account that the U.S. aircraft had been flying over Iranian territory."
"Iranian reports that the aircraft was over Iran are false," said Navy Captain Bill Urban, a spokesman for the U.S. military's Central Command.
"This was an unprovoked attack on a U.S. surveillance asset in international airspace."
While no one want's war with Iran, it's clear the Iranians are asking for it.
Iran said it shot down a U.S. drone.
A state-run news outlet in Iran said that the drone had flown over Iranian territory unauthorized.
The U.S. military disputed the accusation that it had violated Iranian airspace, but not the loss of a drone.
