India, rated left, focused on the IRGC's claim of shooting down a US MQ-1 Predator drone over Qeshm Island. The report stated that the United States had not confirmed the incident. It also highlighted the strategic importance of Qeshm Island due to its location near the Strait of Hormuz and its role in global oil and gas supplies. The report noted that the claim added another point of tension between Tehran and Washington."],"centre":["Hindustan Times, rated centre, reported the IRGC's claim of shooting down a US MQ-1 Predator drone over Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz. The report placed this claim within the context of escalating tensions between Tehran and Washington, referencing recent US rejection of Iranian allegations about striking a radar in Bahrain and the US interception of two Iranian drones. It also mentioned Iran's stated reason for a strike as retaliation for an attack on a telecom tower and noted that the conflict had disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz."],"right":["Four reports rated right led with the IRGC's claim of shooting down a US drone. Anadolu Ajansı reported the IRGC used a newly developed air defence system. News-pravda.com stated the downed drone was the 17th US MQ-1C drone, identifying it as a Gray Eagle ISR and precision strike platform costing $14-21.5 million apiece. Vz.ru and Mehr News Agency also reported the IRGC's claim, with Vz.ru adding that the drone was destroyed by new advanced air defence systems and citing RIA News. Mehr News Agency stated the drone was US-made."],"comparison":""},"blindspot":{"status":"provisional","underrepresentedSide":"left","note":"Coverage is not closed; this is a provisional gap, not a
