Israel: No Comment on Iran's Claim it Downed a Drone over Natanz

Revolutionary Guard said it has brought down an Israeli stealth drone above the Natanz uranium enrichment site.

By AFP, Arutz Sheva

ran's elite Revolutionary Guard said it has brought down an Israeli stealth drone above the Natanz uranium enrichment site in the center of the country.

"A spy drone of the Zionist regime (Israel) was brought down by a missile... This stealth drone was trying to approach the Natanz nuclear zone," the corps said in a statement on its official website sepahnews.com.

This act demonstrates a new adventurism by the Zionist regime... The Revolutionary Guard and the other armed forces reserve the right to respond to this act," the statement added.

An Israeli spokesman told AFP in Jerusalem on Sunday that the military does "not address foreign media reports".

'No Comment' = yes they did in my book. If israel knew proof couldn't be offered up, they would lie (as usual) to the fact. Nice job Iran.

would go into 'overdrive' to proclaim the evidence is false, fabricated and a forgery.

We have played 'that game' before, now haven't we?

And let's not forget that Iran has its propagandists too - their never ending stream of reports of their newly developed wonder weapons are proof of that.

It is I that just said 'Guess we are done here.'

Now is that "working hard pick a fight"?
