Azerbaijan, Baku, Nov. 11 /Trend, D.Khatinoglu/
Lieutenant Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Brigadier General Hossein Salami said that Iran has documents which show that American drone had violated Iran's airspace.
According to Mehr News Agency, Salami said on Sunday that Iran knows international rules and never fire on any plane out of its borders.
A week earlier, Iranian warplanes fired multiple rounds at an unmanned unarmed U.S. surveillance aircraft in international airspace over the Gulf, but the craft was undamaged and returned safely to its base, Pentagon sources said, according to Reuters.
President Barack Obama and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta were both advised early on about the unprecedented incident, which occurred at about 4:50 a.m. ET (0850 GMT) on November 1.
Iran was later warned through diplomatic channels the United States would keep conducting surveillance flights in the region and would protect its military assets.
The incident came a year after a CIA drone crashed in Iran - giving the Islamic Republic access to sensitive American technology.
