MOSCOW, August 24 (RIA Novosti) – Iranian Revolutionary Guards have downed an Israeli drone that was trying to spy on Iran’s nuclearfacility in Nantaz, state news agency ISNA reported Sunday.

“The downed aircraft was of the stealth, radar-evasive type and it intended to penetrate the off-limit nuclear area in Natanz… but was targeted by a ground-to-air missile before it managed to enter the area,” ISNA quoted a statement by the Revolutionary Guards.

The Natanz site is widely seen as Iran’s central facility for uranium enrichment.

In 2011, Iran shot down a US drone RQ-170 near the city of Kashmar.

Earlier this year, Tehran unveiled a copy of the downed American drone at a military aerospace exhibition. According to Iranian officials, the copy is equipped with advanced data collection, video and radar systems.
