U.S. Warplane Forced Down in Iran




U.S. warplane forced down in Iran

TEHRAN, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) -- Iranian jet fighters have forced a U.S.
warplane to land in one of Iran's airports after it entered Iran's air
space without permission, the semi-official Fars News Agency reported
on Tuesday.
The U.S. warplane has eight passengers,
including five high ranking generals and three civilians, Fars said
without specifying when the incident happened.

According to the report, the U.S.
warplane incursion was found unintentional after one day's
interrogation in the airport and was let fly to Afghanistan which was
claimed as its destination.

The report has not been confirmed by neither Iranian nor American military officials.
