Iran has taken out a third F-16 fighter jet in its skies

The third F-16 fighter of the Israeli Air Force was hit in the skies of Iran. This is reported by ParsToday Russian with reference to the IRGC.

"The third fighter of the enemy Zionist regime of the F-16 type was hit at 03.45 in the morning in the central part (of the country) by modern air defense systems of the Space Forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps," the IRGC said.

It is noted that in the first three weeks of the US-Israel war against Iran, more than 200 air targets were intercepted and destroyed, including UAVs, cruise missiles, tanker aircraft and ultra-modern enemy fighters. This "indicates an increase in the capabilities of detecting and intercepting aggressors in the skies of the region and strengthening the country's air defense system," the IRGC stressed.

As reported by EADaily, the American stealth fighter F-35 was hit in the skies of Iran. This is stated in the IRGC statement, ParsToday Russian reported.

At the same time, US President Donald Trump said that the Iranian air defense system has been destroyed, "we fly wherever we want." He said this at a joint briefing with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi at the White House.
