Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has shot down a hostile drone over the southwestern port city of Bandar Imam Khomeini, with debris falling on a residential property but causing no injuries, Al Jazeera reports citing a statement carried by the Tasnim news agency.

The IRGC’s local unit says the unmanned aircraft was intercepted and destroyed in the city’s airspace.

Debris from the downed drone crashed into a home in Bandar Imam Khomeini, but the incident resulted in no loss of life, the statement adds.

After the drone was identified, an IRGC ordnance disposal team secured the wreckage, neutralised any potential hazards, and removed it from the site, Tasnim reports.
