The United States has claimed that American and Israeli forces now dominate the skies over Iran amid escalating tensions in the Middle East.
U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth said the two countries possess the most powerful air forces in the world.
According to him, the United States Air Force and the Israeli Air Force will maintain control of Iranian airspace.
Hegseth said the situation creates what he described as “uncontested airspace” over Iran.

He stated that Iranian leaders would see only American and Israeli air power overhead.
The defence secretary said such dominance would continue until military operations are concluded.
His remarks come as tensions escalate between United States, Israel, and Iran.
The conflict has raised fears of a broader regional confrontation across the Middle East.
