Description
Iranian media published footage on 1 March 2026 showing an Israeli Elbit Hermes 900 being intercepted over Iran. The location was not specified. It was one of two Hermes 900s lost that day, the second falling at Khorramabad in Lorestan province. Iran made systematic use of released engagement footage during the campaign to demonstrate the reach of its air defences against Israeli unmanned aircraft operating deep inside the country.
