It is noteworthy that last month, the Yemeni air defenses also shot down a Saudi Air Force spy plane in the Silan district.

A few days ago, the Yemeni armed forces announced the shooting down of a US-made Scan Eagle spy plane for the Saudi coalition, in the airspace of the Juba region in the Marib governorate.
