Not sure how to read it. Would AFP literally just invent it.
Surely we should start hearing some follow up if it is true.

I’m a little skeptical. On the one hand, the original source is THE SUN. It’s not as scrupulous as most of the media. On the other hand, there was a TIME magazine report some time back that described a near shootout between US and Iranian force inside Iran. The Iranians have become increasingly bold of late, so I could believe it. They did snatch British sailors inside Iraqi waters, for example. I’d not bet on this story, but I won’t be shocked if it’s true.
