Iran's Parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, in an address, said, "Shooting down [America's] F-35 is not a small event". He further said that Iran shot down nearly 170-180 drones as they retaliated with precision in the "shortest possible time". "They wanted to make Iran surrender in 2-3 days, [but] we fought for more than 40 days," Ghalibaf added.
