—❗️🇮🇱/🇮🇷 Iranian Foreign Ministry: 'Netanyahu's retarded statements are not worth listening or responding to'

@Middle_East_Spectator

The IDF has released footage destroying two F-14 Tomcats in the Israeli opening strike.

They were likely already non-operational, but still, a painful thing to watch.

—❗️🇮🇱/🇮🇷 BREAKING: Tasnim News claims Iranian air defenses have shot down a 4th F-35 above Tabriz, Western Iran

@Middle_East_Spectator

Lockheed Martin, the defense company producing the F-35, saw a sharp decrease in stock price.

Amid various unconfirmed reports that Iran has downed four F-35s since the beginning of the war.

Iranian news claims the wreckages are being recovered and transfered to secure locations.

—❗️🇮🇱/🇮🇷 NEW: Iranian military-affiliated channels confirm the F-14 were decoys.

They note that the IRIAF has been using decoys since all the way back during the Iran-Iraq war, and they note the weird position the planes are positioned in — just sitting on the runway with their wings closed (in combat position) for no reason.

Additionally, no secondary explosions or widespread debris are seen after the Israeli strikes.

Who in Israeli military intelligence approved the waste of drones? Their analysts should be fired.
