Iran hacked US drone command center in response to Washington's impudence: IRGC

Tehran (KNA) - A senior commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says Iran’s aerospace force has successfully hacked the US drone command and control system as a response to Washington’s impudence in claiming that it has sabotaged Iran’s missiles.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a ceremony in Tehran on Sunday, the commander of the IRGC's Aerospace Division, Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, said, "We did this to tell them (the Americans) that you not only failed to achieve your goals, but we infiltrated into your systems," and this was a response to the United States' insolence.

On February 12, the New York Times reported that the administration of US President Donald Trump had reportedly revived a secret plan to sabotage Iran's ballistic missiles as part of its broader plan to weaken the Islamic Republic's military might and harm its economy.

According to the report, the program was created under former President George W. Bush, who sought to disrupt Iran's aerospace program by slipping defective parts and materials into its supply chains.
