Foreign Surveillance Aimed at Testing Iran’s Vigilance

The surveillance mission conducted by the United States over Iran appeared to be a minor episode designed to test Iranian forces' vigilance and determination to respond to US aggression, says a lawmaker.
"The incident could be seen as a US test of how vigilant Iranian military and security forces are and how determined they are to follow through with threats of giving a crushing response to any act of aggression," Mohammad Javad Jamali also told the Iranian Diplomacy website.
Iran on Thursday shot down an American spy drone, saying that it had violated the country's airspace in the south. However, Washington claimed that it was targeted in international airspace in "an unprovoked attack".
