Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson: US Pilot Rescue Operation May Have Been to Steal Enriched Uranium

BlockBeats News, April 6th, local time. On April 6th, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Baghaei, during a press conference that day, responded to questions by stating that the U.S. operation to rescue its pilot on the 5th local time constituted a violation of Iran's airspace and raised many doubts. The U.S. pilot was reportedly located in the Kojur-Boyer-Ahmad province, while the area where the U.S. conducted the rescue operation was in central Iran, a considerable distance away.

Baghaei emphasized that the U.S.'s action may have been a "cover operation" aimed at uranium enrichment theft, a possibility that should not be overlooked. This operation, for the U.S., is a "catastrophic scandal." (CCTV News)
