A senior Iranian lawmaker says the Islamic Republic is in possession of intelligence on Israeli secret sites obtained by Hezbollahs Iranian-developed drone Ayub, which recently flew over occupied Palestinian territories.
These aircraft transmit their images online and we are now in possession of the images of [Israeli] restricted areas, Deputy Head of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Committee Esmail Kowsari said in an interview with Al-Alam on Sunday.
Hezbollah recently sent a radar-evading drone deep into the Israeli airspace.
The operation, code-named Hussein Ayub, saw Hezbollahs drone fly hundreds of kilometers into the Israeli airspace and get very close to Dimona nuclear plant without being detected by advanced Israeli and US radars, Hezbollah Secretary General Nasrallah said during a televised speech on October 11.
Kowsari reiterated that Iran has the technology to build armed unmanned aircraft.
On Sunday, Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi said Iran currently has unmanned aerial vehicles that are far more advanced than the drone recently flown by Hezbollah in the Israeli regimes airspace.
The technology of Hezbollahs Iranian-made drone was not Irans latest technology, Vahidi said.
On October 14, Vahidi confirmed that Ayub had been developed by Iran.
