A US reconnaissance aircraft has been shot down over Syria, according to a report by the country's state media.
Syria's air defences shot down the unmanned aerial vehicle on Tuesday in a northwestern province along the Mediterranean coast, SANA reported.
A US official said a Predator drone lost contact but that it was unclear whether it was shot down.
SANA said the aircraft was downed north of the coastal city of Latakia.
It provided no further details.
Footage broadcast on state television reportedly showed some of the wreckage, including a wheel and electronic parts.
Soldiers in camouflage were seen loading some of the debris into the back of a truck.
If confirmed, it would be the first American aircraft to go down over Syria since the US expanded its aerial campaign against the Islamic State in September.
A Jordanian jet crashed near the northern Syrian city of Raqqa in December.
The Islamic State group captured the pilot, Mu'ath al Kassasbeh, and later burned him alive.
