On 27 June 2024, a US Army MQ-1C Gray Eagle drone was downed in the vicinity of Mayadin in Deir ez-Zor Governorate.
The United States maintains an occupational force of several military bases in Syria, nominally in the fight against the remnants of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), in addition to the backing of separatist anti government forces.
It is unknown whether the drone was downed down as a result of friendly fire from US forces, or shot down by Syrian government or other affiliated forces.
