Iran Increases Ballistic Missile Range in Threat to Europe
(Israel Hayom) Neta Bar - Iran recently announced it had made unprecedented progress in its missile program, including developing missiles that could threaten Western states. IDF Lt.-Col. (ret.) Michael Segall, an expert on strategic issues at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, reported that a recent experiment involving solid propellant could enable Iran to increase the range of its missiles to 5,000 km. (3,100 miles) and threaten European states. The Farheekhtegan newspaper, aligned with the Iranian regime, reported this week that the development of a missile capable of reaching targets 5,000 km. away was "closer than ever."
