Referring to the air attacks carried out by the terrorist regime of Israel against Iran earlier this week, the Iranian defense minister said that no fighter jet entered the country's airspace during the Israeli aggression.
No problem has been made in the missile production process, he added.
Iran’s Air Defense Base said in a statement on Saturday that the country’s air defenses successfully confronted the Israeli attack.
Iran’s air defenses intercepted and successfully confronted the acts of aggression, it said, adding that some limited damage was caused to some sites, the dimensions of which are being investigated.
The Iranian Army said four of its servicemen had been martyred in the attacks.
