Tehran (dpa) -- Iran said it has shot down "unidentified shining objects" over the Gulf in southern Iran, the website of the Press TV network reported Tuesday.

The commander of the Revolutionary Guards in the port of Bushehr said after Iranian radar detected three bright objects flying over the Gulf Islands of Khark and Khargou, the guards targeted and shot them down.

General Ali Razmjou did not clarify when the objects were detected and shot down.

The general added that the wreckage of the objects has not yet been found.

The incident was not confirmed by the headquarters of the Revolutionary Guards in Tehran and there was no follow-up to the story which was initially reported by the official news agency IRNA.

Turns out they were gilt-edged leaflets outlining basic human rights air-dropped from a plane.

No wonder the Iranian authorities panicked.

Madonna's metal breast plates as she was hang gliding?

After all she is Jewish you know! Goes to Israel for religious instruction in the Kabbalah. The Iranians have been after her for some time because whe is the worlds woman in pants and an inspiration for Iranian women.

Fatwahs were issued against shiny orbs in the sky.
