by PressTVGlobalNews
A political analyst tells Press TV that Iran's swift reaction to the recent drone incident will send the message to Washington that Iran is vigilant and does not allow the violation of its sovereignty. This comes after Iran's Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi said the Iranian military has driven away an unidentified aircraft violating the country's airspace. Press TV has conducted an interview with Kaveh Afrasiabi, author and political scientist, to further discuss the issue.

The comments come after several people were killed in a car bomb explosion in the Damascus suburb of Muadamiya al-Sham, on Friday.
Press TV has conducted an interview with Dr. James F. Tracy, Associate Professor at the Florida Atlantic University, to further discuss the issue.
