This was reported two weeks ago. You need to point that out, less one think there is something more afoot on the dark continent.
I agree – it’s difficult to put too much faith in the reportrs from Iran’s media, but this would appear to be a diffrent incident from this one:https://www.uasvision.com/2011/10/24/two-us-unmanned-aircraft-down-in-somalia-near-kenyan-border/
or this one: https://www.uasvision.com/2011/10/27/another-us-unmanned-aircraft-crashes-in-southern-somalia-near-kenyan-border/
If you have an idea of how we can get more accurate information from this area, I would be most grateful !
Thanks
