Iran lifts missile range limit, vows readiness to counter threats

Iran has announced the removal of restrictions on the range of its missiles, amid rising tensions with the United States. Tehran says it is prepared to respond to any threat. The decision lifts the voluntary 2,000-kilometer range limit, as announced by a Revolutionary Guard spokesman. Iran also stated weapons production will continue despite external pressures, with some manufacturing moved to underground facilities. Meanwhile, the United States has established a new military unit to prevent the transport of arms and military material to Iran, both by land and via the Caspian Sea.
