Iran conducts 2nd round of missile tests

Iran's state television says the elite Revolutionary Guard fired medium-range missiles in a second round of tests meant to demonstrate the country's preparedness for an attack.

The report says the Guard test-fired Shahab-1 and Shahab-2 missiles overnight, following tests of short-range missiles early Sunday.

The Shahab-1 and Shahab-2 have a range of about 185 miles (300 kilometers) and 435 miles (700 kilometers) respectively. Iran said it will also test-fire on Monday a version of its Shahab-3 and Sajjil missiles, the longest-range missiles in its arsenal. Both have a range of about 1,200 miles (2,000 kilometers) and are capable of striking Israel and U.S. Mideast bases and parts of Europe.
