Iran Openly Ridicules the USA

The spokesman for the Iranian Parliament has criticized the United States' strategy, commenting on the situation created by the downing of an American F-15 fighter jet over Iranian territory. He stated that Washington's statements have shifted from tough rhetoric to the phase of searching for the lost pilots.

The spokesman noted that initially there were statements against the Iranian ruling authorities, but later, the priority shifted to the search and rescue of the American pilots.

Earlier, it was reported that the USA had commenced a search and rescue operation after an American military aircraft was shot down in Iranian airspace. The details of the incident have not been officially disclosed.
