IRGC: U.S. Suffers Humiliating Defeat Reminiscent of 'Tabas Operation' Failure

Tehran - BORNA - The IRGC Public Relations Department issued a statement regarding recent hostile incursions: "Following desperate measures by the American enemy to rescue the pilot of a downed fighter jet, and the subsequent entry of enemy aircraft into the central regions of the country, a joint operation was launched by the IRGC Aerospace and Ground Forces, alongside popular volunteer units (Basij) and Law Enforcement Forces (FARAJA)."

The statement confirmed that the enemy aircraft were intercepted and destroyed, asserting that "the United States has once again incurred a humiliating defeat, mirroring the failure of the Tabas operation."

The IRGC further noted that U.S. President Donald Trump had previously claimed in a tweet that a "special operation" was underway to rescue the pilot of the aircraft downed in Iran, an attempt the IRGC characterized as a "cover-up" for a heavy strategic failure.

Referencing the historical failure of the 1980 U.S. rescue mission in the Tabas desert, the statement concluded with a direct warning: "Trump the gambler, the God of the sands of Tabas still exists."
