Iran is claiming that a drone that was shot down by Israel
transmitted pictures of 'sensitive' IDF bases before it was shot down.
The drone transmitted pictures of Israel's "sensitive bases" before
it was shot down, said Esmail Kowsari, chair of parliament's defense
committee, according to Iran's Mehr news agency. He was speaking to
Iran's Arabic-language Al-Alam, Mehr reported on Monday.
"These
aircraft transmit their pictures online, and right now we possess
pictures of restricted areas," Kowsari was quoted as saying.
...
Iran's military regularly announces defense and engineering
developments though some analysts are skeptical of the reliability of
such reports.
On Sunday Iranian Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi said
the downed drone did not represent Iran's latest know-how in drone
technology, according to Mehr.
In April, Iran announced it had
started to build a copy of a US surveillance drone, the RQ-170 Sentinel,
captured last year after it came down near the Afghan border.
I'll believe it when I see it. If they really had those kinds of pictures, they wouldn't be bragging about it.
