Iran Denies Report on Breach of Iran’s Airspace by Israeli Jets

Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh has vehemently rejected media reports that Israeli warplanes violated Iran’s airspace during a recent military attack.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a cabinet meeting on Wednesday, General Nasirzadeh dismissed the rumors, stating that no Israeli fighter jets had entered Iranian airspace on October 26.

“According to the United Nations Charter, whenever the airspace of a country is violated, that country will be entitled to respond to the violation and act of aggression,” the defense minister declared, warning that Iran would not hesitate to retaliate.

Nasirzadeh also dismissed reports that a military site in Iran’s northern city of Shahrud had been damaged in an alleged Israeli strike from the country’s northern borders. He insisted that while the enemy had attempted to target Iran’s defense systems, their efforts had failed as Iran had made the necessary civil defense arrangements in advance.

The minister stressed that Iran’s production of offensive capabilities, such as missiles, remained uninterrupted. He emphasized that Iran would respond even to a single bullet being fired at its territory, let alone the latest act of aggression by the Zionist regime.

In a separate statement, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei, underscored the necessity of disrupting the “flawed calculations” of the Zionist regime regarding Iran, warning that the enemy must “realize who the Iranian people are and what the Iranian youth are like.”
