The US has condemned what it called a ‘reckless’ manoeuvre by a Russian jet, which has brought down an American drone.
The fighter jet collided with the propeller of the drone as it was flying over the Black Sea, south of Ukraine.
The US military says the unmanned drone was over international waters, and posed no threat.
Al Jazeera’s Shihab Rattansi joins us live from Washington, DC for the latest updates.

Was It a Reaper or a Poseidon???
USA is so funny, spy drone is “harmless” but they freak out over weather balloon.
Well done Russia to down a drone of eneny of all world ( United terrorist state of America
Oh and why would a predator drone be on Russian boarder? Remember the weather balloon in the US? Hahahahaha
A stunt by US as Nordic stream. A lier
Good News 😜
Russian drone near Cuba
Spy balloons were shot down
Uncle Sam’s mouthpiece.
If US provides intelligence to Ukraine to use against Russia than every US military assets are legitimate targets for Russia to hit. US uses proxies and damage civilians infrastructure (nord stream).
The US should get out of that region. It is enough that US goaded into a war that profits only the US and cost the Ukrainians in blood and infrastructure!
fight u coward
I wonder how the fighter jet only slammed into the propellers of the reaper drone? Russians most have given the drone an overdose of its electronic warfare pills 💊 😳
hit with a shovel?
The drone must have been brought down by the use of chemical weapon ☺️
The US side will be a narrative. I will wait for the Russian side of the news. So US actions in Ukraine aren’t aggressive?
What is the US Drones doing in the Black Sea?
Very bad news. It was not expected
Why is Crimea in red? It’s Russia.
Well Done
Al jazeera is voa BBC anti Russia anti China
Well done russia 🇷🇺
Good job Russia! These Americans a full of hate !!
Wt happened to the jet?
Russia has done what it has to. I am wondering why they didn’t shoot down the intruder drone?
What the US would do if a Russian drone came near its territory?
“International waters…” What does that even mean? 🤔
S27 = Drone >< F22 = Balloon
It’s a minor insignificant incident like this which could bring about Armageddon when countries are ruled by war makers.
US security – a drone on Russia’s economic zone……………lol.
Very good job Russia we with you
Read a comment which said “Russians used two cans of Kerosene to down a million dollar drone while US used a million dollar rocket to down a $5 balloon 🤣
Good job Russian fighter pilots.
they did the right thing
I guess the drone was slightly off course of course! The weather must have blown it across the Atlantic Ocean. They are going to blame it on pilot error.
Well done Russia! 💪
How DARE they accuse Russia of an environmentally reckless manoeuvre, in allegedly dumping fuel over this drone, when the US is highly likely responsible or part responsible for blowing up the Nord Stream gas pipelines.
Do they realise how environmentally reckless that was in comparison?
The utter cheek of it!
“The US military says the unmanned drone was over international waters, and posed no threat.”
🤔 Really?
Over international waters? The correct term is High Seas [as per UNCLOS]. And there are no High Seas in the Black Sea. There are only territorial waters & EEZs!
In any case, the US is the BIGGEST threat to PEACE in the world.
I want to see them unprofessional and unsafe maneuvers that resulted in downing of US drone
Over $30 million dollars that drone. Serves em right. Well done Russia.
1000miles away from the USA
What was the drone doing there !!!!
What would happen if Russia flies a drone near USA
Why would russia NOT shoot it down? Usa provides intel to putins enemies so it’s pretty much a given.
Well, then don’t fly your drones near Russia. Stick to your part of the world and don’t meddle in affairs that don’t concern you. Russia should have blasted it into smithereens to send the right message. But they were kind enough to spare US the embarrassment.
Low cost operation 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What was an American drone doing in the Black Sea. Why American and not Canadian or South African?
We’re dealing with two countries that are straight up BULLIES! They should meet away from civilization like in ANTARCTICA and square their issues without innocent pple getting killed.
And why was the title not RUSSIA CLAIMS SHARP STEER LED TO DRONE CRASH. or something neutral like CLOSE ENCOUNTER LEADS TO LOSS OF US REAPER DEONE?
Methinks they (SU-27 and MQ Reaper) were having a go at each other
Of course the US drones never pose any threat, LOL! Well done Russia, international air space or not the USA is pushing the Russian boundaries and they very well know this
We need “Raw Videos from Russia jet fighter cockpit’s cameras”, those were participating in Black Sea showdown with US drones MQ-9.
The drone runout of fuel and the Russians try to refuel it air to air …..the gas not good and he fall down ! 😂😂😂😂😂
Since US drone is shot down by Russia, the Superior power is Russia till America militarily strike back. Mere warnings are signs of cowards.
No worries, it’s just a Drone Plenty more. Send up something that can lock on to the old su-27 from over the horizon . unfortunately the government rather certain maturity level. Blame and Shame in another batch of HyMars rockets for Ukraine
Was that Drone on its way to a Wedding?
Lol good.
Modern problem requires modern solution.
It’s lucky Russian didn’t pee on it.
THE BANK 🏦 WANTED TO TAKE MY HOME 🏡.. I negotiated 3month loan freeze while I find new job as accountant or worst case scenario security guard … LEASON FOR UKRAINIAN PRESIDENT HOW TO NEGOTIATE WITH POWERFUL NEIGHBOURS ….
It’s up to you President Zelensky on how you deal with The Church in your nation. Use your own judgement.
ישוע המשיח
Don’t be upset when the Chinese balloons shadow you as well!
US is toothless this days
The Russians are so reckless 😅
Throw a nice EMP device in those drones and let’s go flying again and see what happens. If you are taking a drone down and forcing it to ditch, we are going to pull you down with us. Going to be a great day for the people of Russia and the world when Putin finally goes down for a permanent dirt nap.
Why your videos got so many views when it’s about Ukraine and Little to no views when it’s about Palestine what algorithm is going on

An American spy plane
POCCNRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!?????
US Reaper drone of peace “navigation error” last seen over Black Sea.
The rapporter say also dumping fuel on the drone is also dangerous for environment 😂😂 He is consurned about environment!
We supply Ukraine with hardware and then whine when that equipment gets shot down over the Black Sea? Is anyone here that stupid?
Russia drama
usa drones should not be flying so far away by Russia don’t make sense. Russia well done
the drone controller was Neymar friend
Petrol or fuel is what US want
TONS OF THANKS TO RUSSIAN SU-27 PILOTS 👍👍🍺🍺❤️❤️🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
🤡🤡
Quit binging a little girl and start shooting nucks … we both carrying iron get to pulling it draw that hog leg
I’m not with Russia or approve of the war but the drone was way to far from USA and should not ever been there .its fair game in my opinion
Russia downs a drone , US sabotage a pipeline. Spite one another.
Wtf it’s a war going on isn’t it gutless un
Good Russian shoot down this spy drone …no chance for America..Now Russian will investigate and do their own one better than this .hahaha🤔🤔🤔
So what was US drone doing flying over the black sea 🤔
Yet we all cheered when the USA shot down a balloon
Clearly a false flag 😅😅
It’s war of balloons and drones in the sky
US drones NEED to have self-defense capability against dirtball aggressors, GET WITH IT INVENTORS!!!!!!!!!!!!
In year 1971 war, who supported India? Russia. Be loyal to India/Russia. Zelensky, no country ever won war with USA weapons. Please save own people. Give peace a chance.
New war or New slet
What is us drone doing in the vicinity of its rival country Russia.
Always medling in other countries’time for u to be teach a lesson
I hate us
Top Gun then it’s for fun :)) When will the second drone :)) Top Gun à côté c’est pour rigoler :)) A quand le deuxième drone :))
America won’t go to war that’s the last thing the government wants
Most Americans are clueless what their government is doing. This is the tragedy. They drank too much of biden’s cool aid.
