The Islamic Republic of Iran currently has unmanned aerial vehicles

`Hezbollah drone opens new chapter’ Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier
General Ahmad Vahidi says the radar-evading drone that recently
penetrated deep into the Israeli airspace was not Iran’s most advanced
unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).
`The Islamic Republic of Iran currently has unmanned aerial vehicles
with a technology by far more advanced than [that of] the drone
recently flown by the resistance movement of Hezbollah in the Zionist
regime’s airspace,’ Vahidi said on Sunday.
The technology of Hezbollah’s Iranian-made drone was not definitely
`Iran’s latest technology,’ he said.
The Iranian minister emphasized that Hezbollah’s success in flying the
drone over the occupied Palestinian territories shattered the
delusional power of the Israeli regime and dealt a heavy blow to it.
Israel had spread enormous propaganda about its air defense system and
Iron Dome but Hezbollah’s drone disgraced Tel Aviv, he pointed out.
The Iron Dome has been developed by Israel to counter short-range
ballistic missiles and has been established with the financial support
of the United States.
Hezbollah recently sent a radar-evading drone deep into the Israeli airspace.
The operation, code-named Hussein Ayub, saw Hezbollah’s drone fly
hundreds of kilometers into the Israeli airspace and get very close to
Dimona nuclear plant without being detected by advanced Israeli and US
radars, Hezbollah Secretary General Nasrallah said during a televised
speech on October 11.
On October 14, Vahidi confirmed that the radar-evading drone had been
developed by Iran.
`Given the Zionist regime’s frequent incursions into the Lebanese
airspace, we see it as the natural right of Lebanon’s Hezbollah to fly
its drone above the Occupied Territories,’ the Iranian minister said.
