Iran warns against Israeli military flights through neighbouring airspace
Iran’s top military command has warned against Israeli military aircraft using the airspace of neighbouring countries to approach Iran, calling it a dangerous act and a threat. Tehran did not name specific countries but said it reserves the right to respond to such actions.
Iran’s top joint military command warned Friday against what it described as Israeli military aircraft using the airspace of neighbouring countries to approach Iran. In a statement carried by state-run broadcaster IRIB, the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters said the movement of the “terrorist army of the Zionist regime” in the skies of some neighbouring countries toward Iran is a dangerous act and a threat to the country. The statement did not specify which neighbouring country or countries it was referring to.
Response and threat
The headquarters warned that if the United States is unable to restrain or control Israel, Iran “will not tolerate any threat against itself.” It added that Tehran reserves the right to respond to “dangerous” actions. The warning comes amid heightened regional tensions and ongoing US-Iran negotiations following the signing of the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding.
