"suspected iranian drone" and "unclear if that was the intended target" both written in that short article. Not sure if that's the gotcha you think it is.

Why can't that be an American/Russian/Israeli/whatever drone trying to stirr a war?

Because its visually and audio confirmed as a Sahed drone.

Only Russia uses and they are too far away.

Also what intended target is in a city. Those drones have a accuracy of about 3m.
