Iran to increase the range of its missiles, army spokesperson tells Fars

Iran will upgrade the range of its missiles in the midst of the war with the US, as American forces are now positioned as far as 1,000km (621 miles) away from the Iranian coast, army spokesperson Mohammad Akraminia told Fars news agency on Sunday.

"During this war, we concluded that we absolutely must increase the range of our missiles, and we have now moved in that direction," he said.
