‘Russia helps Iran develop new missile’
ISLAMABAD, Nov 13: Russia has supplied Iran, with powerful new technology and parts for long-range missiles that will put Israel and the whole of the Middle East, including British and US forces in the region, within its reach, reports “The Telegraph”.
According to details, the missiles’ range of up to 2,000 kms, would also allow Iran to strike parts of North Africa and of South Eastern Europe.
Reports add that the Shehab 4 has a warhead weighing up to 1,000 kilograms.
The Telegraph quotes National Council of Resistance of Iran, having disclosed that Tehran twice successfully test-fired the new Shehab 4 missiles this summer in front of the country’s military leadership.—APP
