The US has denied the report and said that no American aircraft was shot down.
No US aircraft were shot down near Bushehr, Iran, despite a claim made on Iranian state TV, said a US official, speaking on the condition of anonymity.
Iran's state TV said early on Friday that a US aircraft was destroyed in Iran's Jam governorate in Bushehr, citing its governor Masoud Tangestani.
"No US aircraft were shot down. All US air assets are accounted for," the US Central Command said in a post on X.
