The missiles dubbed Qadr-H were test-fired during the ongoing large-scale drills, codenamed Eqtedar-e-Velayat, Iran`s Press TV reported.


Earlier, Iran on Tuesday test-fired two ballistic missiles during the drills.


White House spokesman Josh Earnest on Tuesday said that Iran`s recent ballistic missile tests did not violate an international nuclear agreement.


Also on Tuesday, US State Department spokesman John Kirby echoed Earnest that the tests, if confirmed, will not be a breach of the Iran nuclear deal. However, he warned that the US will not "turn a blind eye to this".


Separately, under UN Security Council Resolution 1929, Iran was prohibited from working on ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear warheads.
