Iran’s Missile Strike Raises Questions Over Its Actual Range

Iran has sparked global concern after reportedly launching two ballistic missiles toward a US-UK military base in Diego Garcia, located about 4,000 km away. The move has raised doubts about Iran’s previously stated missile range limits.

Iran has long claimed that its ballistic missile capability is restricted to around 2,000 km. However, this recent strike suggests that its true range may be significantly greater than officially declared.

Reacting to the development, Iranian media stated that the attack demonstrates capabilities “beyond what the enemy previously imagined,” indicating a potential expansion in the country’s military reach.
