U.S. Stops Iran From Seizing an American Naval Drone

The U.S. Navy stopped an Iranian ship from taking an American sea drone in the Arabian Gulf Monday night.
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy was in the process of towing the drone, which belongs to the U.S. Navy's 5th Fleet at 11 p.m. local time when the American Navy immediately sent out the nearby Navy coastal ship USS Thunderbolt. The 5th Fleet also repeatedly called Iranian officials, who then let the drone go.
"IRGCN’s actions were flagrant, unwarranted and inconsistent with the behavior of a professional maritime force," Vice Adm. Brad Cooper, commander of U.S. Naval Forces Central Command, U.S. 5th Fleet and Combined Maritime Forces, said in a statement. "U.S. naval forces remain vigilant and will continue to fly, sail and operate anywhere international law allows while promoting rules-based international order throughout the region."
In addition to sending the USS Thunderbolt, the U.S. Navy also sent an MH-60S Sea Hawk helicopter from Sea Combat Squadron 26 based in Bahrain.
