US has achieved 'air superiority' over Iran: Top general

U.S. forces have achieved air superiority over Iran, top U.S. military officer General Dan Caine said on Monday.

Strikes by American forces "resulted in the establishment of local air superiority. This air superiority will not only enhance the protection of our forces, but also allow them to continue the work over Iran," Caine told a news conference.
