Iranian Defense Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najar announced Sunday that his country managed to manufacture a new generation of Drones. Mehr News Agency quoted the Minister as saying "The drones were made by Defense Ministry's engineers and they would be handed over to the military later on." The drones would also be provided to Interior security forces and the police for the purpose of monitoring the nation's borders for any illegal operations, added the official.
