Tehran, June 23 (AFP) Jun 23, 2019
Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted a map on Sunday showing a previous border incident with a "spy drone" encroaching its airspace in late May.

He said the reconnaissance aircraft, a US-made MQ9 Reaper -- also widely used for carrying out military strikes -- had encroached on Iranian territory on May 26 despite being sent several warnings.
