Iran has formally protested to some neighboring countries for allowing what it described as “enemy drones, missiles and micro-aircraft” to fly through their airspace during recent regional hostilities, the commander of Iran’s Border Guard said.

Brigadier General Ahmadali Goudarzi told state media that Tehran had documented the incidents and submitted official complaints, without naming the countries involved.

He said Iran’s borders remain “among the most secure in the region” thanks to advanced monitoring systems and coordination with neighboring states.

Goudarzi added that about 96% of Iran’s borders are under direct control of border forces and that operations continue against smuggling and illegal crossings.
