RULES OF ENGAGEMENT: US shoots down another pro-regime drone in Syria.

A US F-15E fighter jet shot down a pro-Syrian regime drone near At Tanf, Syria, on Monday, two US officials told CNN, the third downing of a pro-regime aircraft this month.

The drone was downed just outside the 55 kilometer de-confliction zone, according to the officials.

It was an Iranian-made Shahed 129 and was thought to be armed and in firing range of US troops.

One official said that the drone was shot down because it was “assessed to be a threat.”

Obama gives Iran money. Iran builds drones. Syria gets drones. Trump shoots down Iranian money.

This is less non-sensical than most anything else going on in the region.
