"Offensive and UAV systems are regularly tested in the country's desert regions, and during one of such research tests, a system experienced a malfunction and disintegration, leading to its crash in the area of Gorgan,” General Talaee Nik stated, commenting on the morning's incident in Gorgan during a television interview.
"Fortunately, there have been no casualties in this incident, and if there has been any material damage to our fellow citizens, it will be compensated by the Ministry of Defense,” he added.
Talaee Nik mentioned that operation and rescue teams are currently collecting the fallen debris. "While thanking the noble people of Gorgan, we expect that if they come across any remaining pieces, they refrain from tampering with or moving them, so that the operational teams can complete their tasks as soon as possible."
