: Suspected Iranian Aircraft Seen at Pak Airbase
Fresh satellite imagery reviewed by media outlets reportedly shows a suspected Iranian reconnaissance aircraft stationed at Pakistan’s Nur Khan Airbase in Rawalpindi.
The aircraft, believed to be an Iranian RC-130 reconnaissance plane, was identified based on its desert camouflage pattern, which differs from the Pakistan Air Force’s standard grey C-130 fleet.
The images emerged after Pakistan denied reports claiming Iran had moved aircraft into Pakistani territory following the U.S.–Iran ceasefire announcement.
The development has sparked geopolitical debate in Washington, with U.S. lawmakers questioning Pakistan’s credibility as a mediator between Tehran and Washington.
Pakistan has acknowledged Iranian aircraft presence earlier but rejected allegations of secretly sheltering military assets.
