Russia shoots down US drone in Black Sea
New overnight, the Russian Defense Ministry is claiming their fighter jets did not use weapons or collide with the unmanned U.S. drone that went down in the Black Sea. Meantime, the US European command said the drone and the two Russian jets were flying over international waters when one of The Jets intentionally flew in front of it and bumped dumped fuel. The aircraft then hit the propeller of the drone, prompting U.S. forces to bring it down. It’s the first time Russian and U.S. military aircraft had reportedly come into contact since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The state over.
