Sorry, but rogue elements in Iran with enough access could do it. Also I would not rule out that Israel and others has moles in Iran and possible high enough in the hierarchy to pull it off.

I'd keep my guard up and deploy AD systems and other systems to try catch any additional launches.

It's quite pathetic how our government doesn't have AD systems in place and rely on NATO.

In his press conference Trump answers that this will be over "very soon" in response to a question. I can see that the US may soon have more or less destroyed Iran's defensive capability. I don't see Iran's offensive capability through drones being destroyed. When the US declares that the war is over I fear it may be over as far as the US is concerned but not as far as the regime and IRGC are concerned.

That is same as Russia-Ukriane, if Russia say they had destroyed the Ukriane millitary capability, what would you think? Even there has been 4 years from the beginning of the war.
If US decided to end their 'special military operation', I would not feel surperise, that is a clever action, the more clever things is not to make it happen.

Footage shows Iranian air defenses of unknown types striking Israeli Hermes-900 heavy UAVs near Tehran and an American MQ-9 Reaper UAV over Bushehr. Other shots of these drones being shot down in Iran are also shown. To date, 11 American MQ-9 Reaper reconnaissance and attack UAVs have been lost, according to CBS News, citing two US officials. Experts estimate the cost of each MQ-9 Reaper UAV to be approximately $30 million.

Given the general carelessness I observed in Iran during peacetime, anything is possible. Otherwise, how could enemy agents, in groups of two or three, assassinate ten high-ranking generals right in their beds in just 10 minutes, aiming Spike anti-tank missiles directly at their bedroom windows or at ballistic missile launchers?
I know the Iranians a little, so I think anything is possible.

One can be of course against US-Israel attacks against Iran, but the way some people act, going as far as to deny their own ministries, is amazing to me. This is done even on television.

Good job being unpaid propagandists of Iran.

This is the same Iran and IRGC that commited a genocide against Syrian civilians. And all the while hiding behind the guise of Shia Islam. Did Imam Husayn ibn Ali gave these charlatans the right to massacre Arab civilians while using his name? Is it not in fact a sin?
