The Iranian capital Tehran suddenly sounded an air raid warning late at night on January 29. At the same time, a passenger plane that was planning to fly to Tehran suddenly diverted. The incident attracted foreign media attention. On the 30th, Iranian officials responded.
According to Iran’s Tasnim News Agency, when Tehran sounded the air-raid alert, a passenger plane from Istanbul happened to circle over Tehran and then changed its route to Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan. This coincidence has sparked speculation on social platforms, and some public speculation is related to the "invasion" of Israeli warplanes.
In this regard, an informed official of the Iranian armed forces clarified and stated that the alert has nothing to do with any threat of air strikes. The official in charge of security affairs in Tehran Province revealed that the alarm sounded because of a technical failure of the alarm. At the same time, the public relations department of Tehran Imam Khomeini International Airport also pointed out in a statement that the change of route of the passenger plane was related to bad weather.
