An Iranian exhibition will showcase four Israeli drones, the Tehran Times reported on Wednesday. According to the report, The exhibition will also display three American drones and will be open to local press and foreign ambassadors.
The newspaper quoted a source saying that Iran seized the Israeli jets after they invaded Iran’s aerial space on its eastern border. The US drones were apparently caught when flying over eastern and southern Iran.
Last January, a senior Revolutionary Guard commander announced that his forces intercepted two spy planes in the Persian Gulf. He did not mention where the jets came from or where they were intercepted but also addressed Israel in the same statement.
The exhibition is part of Tehran’s psychological warfare campaign following the interception of a US drone last week. The Islamic Republic wants to prove it can thwart any aerial infiltration attempt and prevent spying missions targeting its nuclear facilities.

i wouldn’t be surprised if Israel intentionally had a “dummy” drone “caught” for numerous possibilities.
You mean to say they aren’t “giving them back”?
