This is the second drone incident in a week. On December 15, Turkish F-16s shot down an unidentified drone over the Black Sea.
After inspection, it was determined that the drone had gone out of control. It was shot down in a safe area, away from residential areas, to avoid risks to civilians.

It performs aerial reconnaissance, surveillance, monitoring, search, combat training, electronic jamming, searches for radio signals, and tracks targets.
