Tehran says it shot video of U.S. aircraft carrier during Iranian drillDecember 29, 2011 - 13:04 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Iran says one of its surveillance planes has shot video and photographed a U.S. aircraft carrier during an Iranian drill near a strategic waterway in the Persian Gulf, AP reported citing the official IRNA news agency. IRNA on Thursday, Dec 29, quoted Rear Adm. Mahmoud Mousavi as saying this shows Iran's navy is "observing moves by foreign forces" in the area. IRNA's report didn't provide details or say which U.S. carrier was filmed. It's unclear what value such footage could have. Iran is holding a 10-day military exercise in international waters beyond the Strait of Hormuz - the passageway for one-sixth of the world's oil supply. The report follows U.S. warnings over Iranian threats to choke off traffic through the strait if Washington imposes sanctions targeting Iran's crude exports. ![]() ![]() Azerbaijani authorities report that they have already resettled 3,000 people in the Nagorno-Karabakh town of Stepanakert.
