Iran posesses photos of Israeli military bases shot by Hesbollah UAV "Eyyub", Vice-Chairman of the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Esmail Kowsari said, Mehr reported.

"We own very sensitive images of Israeli military bases that were shot by the drone," Kowsari said.

According to Kowsari, the drone managed to transfer the photos of the Israeli bases before it got shot down by Israeli destroyers.

Earlier this month Hezbollah launched an unmanned spy drone named "Eyyub" into Israeli territory.

The drone entered the Israeli airspace on Oct. 6. The Israeli destroyers were sent for the drone, after it crossed the border.

Later, Secretary-General of Hezbollah Seyed Hassan Nasrallah confirmed that the movement has sent a drone deep into the Israeli airspace, and stressed that the move demonstrated part of Hezbollah's capability.

Fars agency reported on Oct. 28 quoting Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi, that Iran's drone technology is much more advanced than the one Hezbollah recently used for penetrating the Israeli airspace.
