Tehran: Iran said on Tuesday its armed forces had conducted new ballistic missile tests to demonstrate "deterrent power" and the country`s "all-out readiness to confront threats" against its territorial integrity.
The announcement was carried by the official IRNA news agency, describing a military drill in which "ballistic missiles were fired from silos" in different parts of the country.
Washington imposed new sanctions over Iran`s missile programme in January almost immediately after separate sanctions related to Iran`s nuclear programme had been lifted.
