Surveillance drone. This is new video from the incident from the defense department. This was an unprovoked attack in infer national airspace. It happened in the same region where two tankers were attacked last week. Iran is disputing that claim saying the aircraft was over iran. This drone is enormous, he has a wing span of nearly 131 feet and is worth a cool 180 million. As tensions in the region escalate and americans question whether the u. S. Will retaliate against iran, the president says youll find out. Iran made a big mistake. This drone was in international waters, clearly, we have it all documented, its documented scientifically, not just words. And they made a very bad mistake. How will you respond . Youll find out. Are you willing to youll find out, youll find out. Cnns Senior International correspondent is live in tehran. Have iranian officials said this was a mistake . No, they certainly havent, and brooke, theyve already released some video of what they say is the surface to air Missile System firing as it it was shooting down this american dro drone. As you can see that missile taking off and firing, it doesnt look like the guys that are on the ground or they have accidentally shot something down. It seems as though they believe this was a very large success. The iranians themselves arent saying this was some sort of mistake. The big dispute as you said, between the u. S. And iran where was this drone shot down . Now, the iranians maintain it was shot down over their own airspace, while the u. S. Says it was in International Airspace. The iranians are saying it was somewhat south of the straight of hormuz. Irans foreign minister getting involved in this, he said the drone took off about 14 minutes past midnight local time. He made a claim the iranians made earlier, saying the drone was in stealth mode as he put it, the iranians saying it was mask its transponder, flying close to iranian airspace. It was shot down around 4 00 a. M. Local time, the iranians this is interesting, it could shed some light on the situation in the future. The iranians now saying theyve actually found parts of the drone in their own territorial waters. Whether or not thats true is still up in the air. It seems as though we may see some of the debris of this drone in iranian custody. So clearly two sides to this whole situation. Fred, thank you. Rear admiral john kirby is a former state department spokesman. A pleasure as always. What did you think listening to President Trump earlier saying it was a mistake . What did you make of that . When i heard that, it seemed to me like he was trying to signal they have an indication this might have been a revolutionary guard unit or a revolutionary guard commander acting on his own. Theres precedent for that, the revolutionary guard doesnt report to the civil state government. They report right to the Supreme Leader and they have been known in the past to do things on their own without coordinating it with the rest of the military, much less the government in tehran, it seemed to me thats what he was trying to say, when he referred to a mistake, that said, brooke, when you look at the way the iranians have tried to communicate what happened, the video theyre releasing, the aggressiveness of Foreign Ministers on twitter. It makes me wonder if that was the case, if it was a rogue thing. It seems like tehran is backing it at 100 here. I was watching you after that pentagon briefing earlier, you were less than impressed with the dots on the map. There you go. Yeah, the dots on the map that the pentagon was presenting saying the u. S. Drone was in International Airspace. How can the u. S. Prove that the drone was there . I think what they really need to do is release the tracked data that they have, which will include a graphic, youll see in the track data, if they release this, youll see a screen shot of the map from the sensor system not from google, which is basically what this is. I thought this was a horribly anemic way to make their case. To put out a general to the pentagon on the phone, not on camera, and then not take questions. I think they need to do a much better job convincing the International Community that what happened is what they say happened. I frankly dont dispute it, we dont need to fly this particular drone into somebodys airspace. The reason we have this large rq 4s is so they can operate in International Airspace where strong sensors that dont require them to be put at risk inside somebody elses airspace. Im not doubtful of their story, but they have to do a much better job telling it. What are u. S. Military options in the region . They run the gamut. You could go full on conventional strike. Maybe hitting a revolutionary gaud asset somewhere here, maybe even near where the launch site was. You could go right at the revolutionary guard, thats also very escalating. That takes up all the tensions a notch, or you can do something thats overt not visible. Maybe start exporting tankers, maybe flying more recon sense flights that are protecting by fighter aircraft, that kind of thing, you could as a show of force, theres lots of options here from the low intensity to the high intensity, i suspect that theyre teeing these options up for the president , hopefully hell choose one that doesnt take the tensions up higher than they are. Admiral kirby, thank you so much. You know the region well, let me bring in a man who needs no introduction. Wolf blitzer is here, you know the region obviously well, too, listening to President Trump next to trudeau. This is not the first time theyve launched a surface to air missile to destroy a u. S. Drone. The u. S. Oil tankers were hit by iranians, there was an attack, it didnt hit that drone, this was the second time we see the iranians launch surface to air missile against u. S. Drone, these arent like little toys, these drenones, these are big aircra aircraft, theyre unmanned, but they are significant, they cost almost 200 million. If it would have been the first time maybe, but this is the second time. I know from conversations ive had, the u. S. Military is pretty impressed that the iranians have the capability to hit this drone which was flying about 30,000 feet. You were once the cnn pentagon correspondent, youve been in many of those briefins,s what did you make of his explanation or i guess the brevity of the call in all of this, by the way, happening without a defense secretary. I think they need to do a significant on camera briefing, and allow reporters, journalists to ask questions. Kirby said the same thing, i spent several years reporting from the pentagon. I dont remember. Someone would make a statement, they would hang up and say if youre this is a really tense situation, right now. This situation could clearly explode. I dont think the president wants it, hes been an isolationist most of his adult life. He wants to get out of there, but ironically, despite his own intentions, in the past couple weeks, hes authorized 2500 additional u. S. Troops to head to the region, whether to qatar, bahrain or saudi arabia or any place else in the region, kuwait, the u. S. Has a lot of troops there. Right now the u. S. Has more than 70,000 troops in the persian gulf area. Plus another tens of thousands of civilian contractors a lot of diplomats, there are a lot of American Families right now who are looking at whats going on in that part of the world, who are beginning to get very nervous, because despite what the president wants, i dont think he wants to go to war. This could explode. Even as he was wrapping up the quick q a, i campaigned on this, i want to end these wars, reminding everyone of afghanistan 19 years in, yet he still seems to be at odds with members of his own administration who are much more hawkish on places like iran. Ive been for 20 years ive been talking to President Trump as a civilian, since hes been president he hasnt given me an interview. When he was a civilian, talking to him all the time as a private citizen, hes been consistent, i looked at some of the interviews he did, he was always skeptical of deploying troops, forget about the middle east, whether in germany, japan, korea or elsewhere, he wanted those troops here in the United States. He didnt want to be spending a lot of money with nato, hes been consistent on that, what might he do . The militarys giving him a lot of options. Remember what he did during his first year in office when there was a threat to the syrians. You watched more than 50 tomahawk cruise missiles. He could do Something Like that and see what the iranians do. My own gut tells me the iranians are taunting him a little bit right now, with these attacks, on the oil tankers, the pipelines, they get a civilian airport in saudi arabia. The iranians have some assets. And as much as they dont want to see the u. S. Use military force, im sure i dont think the president wants to either, this thing could explode accidentally, if things get much more intense. And i suspect they will will. Wolf blitzer, will we see you in the situation room . I will be there later today my situation room. I know there are meetings in other situation rooms. Ill be in my situation room. Thanks, wolf. Any moment now, whether hes running for u. S. Senate again. Despite President Trump asking him not to. Plus President Trump saying swing states may not be important for him to win the election. As long as he can get his base out to vote. Later, cnn goes to the gulf of ohman, one of the reporters that got up close with the tankers that the u. S. Believes was attacked by iran.

Since april of this year messaging have escalated again and again. On may 11st the u. S. Imposed sanctions on other countries who purchased iranian oil. Days later, the pentagon received intelligence of a possible threat against u. S. Forces in the region, and they sent a Carrier Strike group to the middle east may 12th, four International Commercial shifts were attacked off the coast of the uae they suspect iran is behind the blast one day later, a major escalation. Two oil pumping stations were attacked by armed drones. The iranian backed militia claims responsibility for that. President trump delivers an intensified threat. If iran wants to fight, that would be the official end of iran. Which brings us to last week when two oil tankers were attacked in the gulf of ohman. It shows an iranian boat retrieving an unexploded mine from one of the ships which iran dismissed as unfounded. The u. S. Navy allowed one of our cnn correspondents to get an up close look at it. The americans say they cant say, however, with any certainty that it was put there by the iranians, nonetheless, it blew both the outer hull and the inner hull of this ship, penetrating the fuel tank area, some experts say that is deliberate, it was a sign that whoever planted this knew what they were doing. They wanted to cenned a signal but not cause a disaster. That brings us to this week, monday the u. S. Deployed 1,000 additional troops to the region, and on the very same day iran announces it will violate the deals, if they dont help them circumvent u. S. Sanctions. Sam kylie joins me now. Give us perspective on this part of the world, and how concerned are our middle east leaders that this will escalate into war . I think the short answer is, deeply concerned, brook, here in the emirates a nation traditionally in lock step with saudi arabia and the United States in p rhetorical attacks on iran. Has been anxious to observe that they are not pointing the finger at iran and simply saying that over the sea born attacks, there have been six ships that have been attacked now. Saudi arabia is pointing the finger, if we can assume as is likely, from the American Perspective that iran has been conducting all these attacks, the latest drone strike is entirely consistent in a display from them in in their be abilities. Theyre signaling how much theyre hurting, and signaling about their military capabilities. Calibrating their response. This is a flying robot that was shot down. Nobody got hurt, its embarrassing for the u. S. Military, but it hasnt done any damage than to stuff. No people have been hurt. We look straight across the land mass is iranian territory. Its a freight thing prospect this could escalate over the downing of a piece of machinery. There is real fear this could escalate into that, it sounds like from your part of the world.

Controversial alabama republican Just Announced hes going to make another run for the u. S. Senate seat that he lost in that special election in 2017. Yes, i will run for the United States senate in 2020. My Campaign Site will be roymoore. Org, i hope you can look at it. Can i win . Yes, i can win. Not only cannot, they know i can. Thats why theres such opposition. The last time roy moore ran for the senate seat, his campaign was engulfed by the sexual contact involving teenaged girls when he was in his 30s. He vehemently denied those allegations, and he lost. The president has nothing against roy moore, but doesnt want him to run because he cant win. I know you cant climb into his head or heart. Why does the man think he can win after two years. He was removed from his position as chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court not once but twice, he did lose that race to doug jones by less than two points in a year, when donald trump won the state by 27. Can he win in a general election. Quite possibly, we need to get to the general election. Theres a primary right now for that seat. Roy moore has to win that, i dont think hes going to have very much to do with his c
