Yemen’s military media released on Friday video footage of the downing of an American MQ-9 drone with a locally made surface-to-air missile while it was conducting hostile activities in the skies over Al-Yatmah, Al-Jawf Governorate.
The video shows the moment when the American MQ-9 drone was downed with a locally made surface-to-air missile.
It also shows scenes of the debris of the American MQ-9 drone being burned in the Al-Jawf desert.
Meanwhile, the US military acknowledged the videos circulating online showing what appeared to be a flaming aircraft dropping out of the sky and a field of burning debris in what those off-camera described as an area of al-Jawf province.
The military said it was investigating the incident, declining to elaborate further.
