IRAN CLAIMS TO HAVE HIT AMERICAN F-35S

ON 30 JULY, THE IRANIAN REVOLUTIONARY GUARD CLAIMED THAT THREE UNITED STATES MILITARY F-35 FIGHTERS HAD BEEN DESTROYED AND THREE OTHERS DAMAGED IN A MISSILE ATTACK ON THE JORDANIAN AZRAQ AIRBASE. THE IRAQI SIDE STATED THAT THE ATTACK WAS IN RETALIATION FOR THE AIR STRIKES ALLEGEDLY CARRIED OUT BY UNITED STATES FORCES AGAINST CIVILIAN HOMES ON GASHM ISLAND, WHICH RESULTED IN THE DEATH OF THREE CIVILIANS. THESE CLAIMS HAVE NOT YET BEEN SUBSTANTIATED。
