Iran Lifts Missile Range Limits Amid Regional Tensions

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran has announced the lifting of its self-imposed limit on ballistic missile ranges, now allowing for capabilities beyond 2,000 kilometers. This move comes amid heightened regional tensions and fears of renewed conflict with the United States and Israel. Recent satellite imagery suggests significant construction activity near Iranian missile bases, indicating the establishment of underground facilities for missile and drone production. The IRGC has also claimed to have downed over 260 aircraft during ongoing hostilities and is set to unveil a new underground missile city, highlighting advancements in its aerospace capabilities. With the removal of missile range restrictions, Iranian officials warn that their capabilities could extend beyond the Middle East.
