Iraqi airspace witnessed aerial violations conducted by hostile fighter jets and military aircraft, deemed an infringement on national sovereignty, according to Iran's Tasnim agency. Reports indicated that these sorties were launched from bases located in Jordanian territory and occupied lands, highlighting the presence of five KC-135 aerial refueling and support aircraft in Iraqi skies providing operational backing. The details noted that two F-16 aircraft and two F-35 fighters breached Iraqi airspace. This coincided with a report published by Israeli newspaper Maariv concerning maneuvers by F-35I fighters simulating penetration into Iranian airspace, involving American logistical support and mid-air refueling over Iraq, according to the circulated accounts.
