Tehran: Iran has accused one of its passenger aircraft was chased by the American fighter aircraft F-15. In order to avoid a collision, many people were badly injured due to a sudden change in the height of the aircraft. The incident happened on Thursday when the Iranian private airline company Mahan Air's plane left Tehran for Beirut. There were more than 150 people on board. The US Central Command said that to ensure the security of US-led military bases in Syria, this has been done under international standards.

The battleship Jet F-15 was at a safe distance of 1000 meters from the Iranian passenger aircraft. According to information received from the Iranian media, the fighter jet has disturbed the Iranian aircraft. However, the passenger plane safely landed in Lebanon's capital, Beirut. The Iranian State Department said that a complaint of objection to the incident was filed through the Swiss Embassy. This embassy in Tehran is representing the interests of America. The department has told that if there is any problem in returning this aircraft, then America is going to be responsible for it.

The department has claimed that the pilot of the aircraft made a sudden change in altitude to avoid hitting the US jet, injuring several passengers. Iran and the United States have been under fire ever since President Donald Trump announced the withdrawal of Washington from the nuclear deal with Tehran in 2018. With which many strict restrictions are also being imposed on him. The tussle between the two countries was further heightened when Iranian commander Qasim Sulemani was killed in a US drone strike in Baghdad on January 3.
