Indian print media widely cover Iran’s military exercises

New Delhi, June 29, IRNA -- Leading Indian newspapers on Tuesday massively cover Iran’s military exercises.

Indian print media widely cover Iran’s military exercises
“Iran on Monday unveiled underground silos that can carry missiles capable of hitting Israel and US bases in the Persian Gulf as it kicked off 10 days of war games, the country’s latest show of military force amid a standoff with the West over its nuclear program,” India’s leading English daily said.

“The Times of India” wrote under the title 'Our missiles can reach US bases: Iran'.

The daily further wrote that State TV broadcast footage of deep underground silos claiming that medium and long-range missiles stored in them are ready to launch in case of an attack on Iran. Silos are viewed as a strategic asset for Iran in the event of a US or Israeli attack on its nuclear facilities.

“The silos “function as a swift-reaction unit”. Missiles, which are permanently in the vertical position, are ready to hit the pre-determined targets,” English daily wrote quoting Col. Asghar Qelichkhani, a spokesman for the military.

Another leading English daily “The Asia Age” quoting IRNA wrote: “Iran’s Revolutionary Guards tested 14 missiles on Tuesday, the second day of war games intended as a show of strength towards the Islamic Republic’s enemies Israel and the United States. The Iranian made surface-to-surface missiles, with a maximum range of 2000 km, were fired simultaneously at a single target, it said.

The daily further wrote that Commander Amir Ali Hajizadeh, head of the Revolutionary Guards’ aerospace unit, emphasized Iran’s preparedness to strike Israel and US interests in the event of any attack on the Islamic Republic.

The range of Iran’s missiles has been designed based on American bases in the region as well as the Zionist regime,” Asian Age wrote quoting Hajizadeh.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guards on Tuesday fired nine Zelzal missiles, two Shahab-1, two Shahab 2s and one upgraded Shahab-2 missile, outside the city of Qom, a city of Iran.
