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.

Are they trying to tell us they shot down jets?No. You're just suppose to "think" they shot down jets. Iran has discovered the meaning of the word "is."
Omg! Their military ingenuity just will not end!

and so, during the final year of Ramadan, the Twelfth Imam will rise from the well, illuminated in all his glory, only to be blown out of the sky in flames by a trigger-happy vote chiseling lunatic....

Here's the photo they claimed as evidence they shot down a huge fire ball in the sky.

Maybe they shot down the 12th imam as he was coming to make his glorious return.
Or maybe they shot down one of their wayward missiles after the latest test fail.
Or maybe someone in the Revolutionary Guards has been smoking a little too much hashish.
