Iran says it controls the skies over Israel

An Iranian military spokesman, mirroring the language of Israel in recent days as it now operates with impunity over the skies of Iran, claims Tehran has “complete control over the skies” of Israel.

The remarks by Revolutionary Guard Col. Iman Tajik represent the latest effort by Tehran to convince an audience at home that Iran is in control after days of bombing by Israel.

He further claims: “Tonight’s missile attack showed that we have gained complete control over the skies of the occupied territories and that its residents have become completely defenseless against Iranian missile attacks.”

Israel has been shooting down many Iranian missile and drone attacks through its missile defense systems, but some missiles have gotten through and struck the country.
