'Govt should investigate illegal mining in Karnataka'

Iran has claimed, through a military source cited by Tasnim News Agency, that its indigenous air defence systems successfully targeted an American F-35 stealth fighter. The source said the US and Israel were "stunned and bewildered" by an unknown, domestically-built Iranian system and that Iran has been deliberately concealing military technologies throughout the conflict. The Pentagon and CENTCOM have not confirmed or denied any F-35 engagement. A fighter jet did make an emergency landing at a US base in the region. If the claim is true, it is the most significant air combat development of the 21st century. If false, Iran is still winning the information war and knows it.
