Iran Claims MQ-9 Reaper Downed Over Ahvaz; CENTCOM Silent

🛰️ AHVAZ — Iran claims a kill over Khuzestan — the province the US just struck. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Ahvaz sits in Khuzestan, hours after US bombs hit Shadegan. An MQ-9 loss here would confirm ISR coverage over Iran's oil heartland — and hand Tehran a propaganda win precisely when it needs one. CENTCOM silence is standard until BDA is complete. If confirmed, it signals Iran's air defenses retain kill capability despite eight nights of suppression strikes.
