Spokesperson Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Brigadier General Hossein Mohebbi says that the US is used to “Hollywood-style narratives to compensate for its failures,” ISNA reports.

The statement came in response to the US claim of rescuing a pilot in Iran.

“The US is accustomed to presenting Hollywood-style narratives and, to compensate for its failures, pieces together segments from films of other regions and incidents; at the same time, images were published showing that parts of the targeted F-15 fighter were being collected and transported in a wheelbarrow.”
