Tehran – Iranian state television’s website has published images it says show debris from the U.S. military surveillance drone that Iran shot down the previous day.

The pictures show what appears to be the skin of the U.S. Navy RQ-4A Global Hawk. Iranian state television did not say where the debris was filmed.
The photographs did not show any circuit boards, wiring or electronic equipment.
An Iranian surface-to-air missile fired early Thursday brought down the RQ-4A Global Hawk, an unmanned aircraft with a wingspan larger than a Boeing 737 jetliner and costing over $100 million. The U.S. said it made plans for limited strikes on Iran in response, but then called them off.
The shootdown has further escalated tensions between Iran the U.S. as Tehran’s nuclear deal with world powers unravels.

I remember someone saying that it might have been shot down by mistake,
The biggest mistake is…….whatever you’re thinking right now
Something not quite right here..
If it was not in Iranian territory when it was shot down…how do the Iranians have the debris?
And if the American warships were there, why would they pick up the debris of the shot down US drone.
This is making even less sense as time goes on.
