IRG COMMANDER: IRAN CAN PRODUCE EVEN LONGER RANGE MISSILES

PanARMENIAN.Net – A senior Revolutionary Guard commander says Iran
is capable of producing even longer range missiles than the ones it
has now but won’t make them because Israel and U.S. bases in the Gulf
are already within its reach.

Amir Ali Hajizadeh says the Guard’s arsenal includes missiles with a
range of up to 1,250 miles (2,000 kilometers), which puts Israel, U.S.

bases in the Persian Gulf and parts of southeastern and eastern Europe
within Iran’s reach.

Hajizadeh claimed on Tuesday, June 28, that Iran “possess the
technology” but has “no intention of producing” the missiles with
the over-2,000-kilometer range. He gave no details, AP reports.

The Guard on Monday kicked off 10 days of war games, its latest show
of military force amid a standoff with the West over Iran’s nuclear
program.
