Original Note:
Damage to the propeller of the MQ-9 drone is evident at the end of the video. The US claims that the drone was "intercepted and hit by a Russian aircraft" (an SU-27 fighter jet). Russia claims the drone crashed "as a result of sharp maneuvering" https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-64957792 https://www.reuters.com/world/what-happened-us-drone-downed-near-ukraine-2023-03-15/
