Iran announces successful test of ‘new missile’ amid rising Gulf tensions
Tehran successfully test-fired a new missile, according to the leader of the elite Revolutionary Guards. The launch comes as Tehran seeks to deter military escalation with the United States in the Persian Gulf.
Major General Hossein Salami disclosed the tests to a group of clerics on Saturday.
“Our country is always the arena for testing a variety of defense and strategic systems and these are non-stop movements towards the growth of our deterrent power,” Salami said, according to the semi-official Tasnim News Agency.
