Iran shoots down U.S. spy drone amid growing military pressure
'Iranian troops have shot
down a U.S. pilotless spy plane recently, an Iranian lawmaker announced on
Tuesday as the Islamic Republic was facing increasing military pressure from its
arch rival -- the United States. The aircraft was brought down when it was trying to
cross the borders "during the last few days," Seyed Nezam Mola Hoveizeh, a
member of the parliament, was quoted by the local Fars News Agency as saying.'
