Iran to shoot down 'flying objects' near nuclear facilities
 TEHRAN: Iran's air force has been ordered to shoot down any unidentified or suspicious flying objects in Iran's airspace, an air force spokesman said on Saturday, amid state-media reports of sightings of flying objects near Iran's nuclear installations. "All anti-aircraft units and jet fighters have been ordered to shoot down the flying objects over Iran's airspace," spokesman of the Regular Army Air Force Colonel Salman Mahini said.
| I'll bet the Iranian AA forces are almost as good as the ones Sammy had. |
| Is it duck season again already? Hope Khameini forgot to renew his permit this year. |
Flying object fever has gripped Iran after dozens of reported sightings in the summer and in recent weeks. State-run media has reported sightings of unidentified objects flying over parts of Iran where nuclear facilities are located. "The unidentified flying objects could be satellites, comets or spying or reconnaissance crafts trying to monitor Iran's nuclear installations," Mahini said. "Flights of unknown objects in the country's airspace have increased in recent weeks ... (they) have been seen over Bushehr and Isfahan provinces," the Resalat newspaper reported on Saturday.
