/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Iran's air force will start exercises on Monday in
the Gulf and the Sea of Oman in order to raise "its operational and
support capability", the official news agency IRNA said on Sunday.
"In this manoeuvre there will be long-distance flights of around
3,600 km (2,237 miles) along with aerial refueling from tanker to
fighter jet and from fighter jet to fighter jet.
"There will also be low altitude flights over the waters of the Gulf
and the Sea of Oman by Iranian fighter jets over distances of 700 km,"
it said.
The plans for the military exercises were already announced some
time ago. The IRNA report made no mention of protests in Iran over
its disputed election.
