Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf mocked the United States after reports of a downed American fighter jet, sarcastically questioning Washington’s war strategy. In a post targeting United States leadership, he derided the conflict as a “no-strategy war,” saying it had shifted from “regime change” to searching for missing pilots. Iranian media claimed a fifth-generation jet, possibly an F-35, was shot down by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps using a new air defence system. A search operation for the pilot is reportedly underway, though US authorities have not confirmed the incident. Analysts warn that any verified loss could significantly escalate tensions. (PC: ANI)
