Summary

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claims to have captured a US Remus 600 submarine drone in the Strait of Hormuz, alleging the autonomous vehicle was conducting espionage. According to the IRGC, the seizure was executed using electronic warfare and intelligence capabilities, and the device has been handed over to specialists for data recovery. However, CENTCOM spokesman Captain Tim Hawkins has denied the claim, stating that the US maintains positive control of all its operational drone assets. The incident remains unconfirmed by the US side.
