Turkey claims to have shot down Israeli Heron drone
A Turkish report claims that Turkey shot down an Israeli Heron drone that was spying on Turkey (Hat Tip: Joshua I). Israel's drone 'Heron' crashed in the Mediterranean Sea area near the Karatas district in the Adana city, Turkey, the Sabah newspaper reported.I suspect that this story is not true. First, I am told that the local governor has denied it (link in Turkish).
According to reports, local fishermen revealed the crashed drone and then it was sent to Ankara to the appropriate authorities for a specific analysis.
District Governor Mustafa Kilic refused to comment on this fact, saying that he lacks clear information about it.
Second, if the Turks really had shot down an Israeli spy plane, they would be gloating about it everywhere by now.
It's more likely that something like this happened:

Maybe they shot down one of their own that they bought from Israel?
