Iran targets US ‘Diego Garcia’ base with 2 ballistic missiles

TEHRAN, Mar. 21 (MNA) – A US media outlet has reported that Iran has targeted one of the most remote and strategic US military bases outside the country's borders with two ballistic missiles.

Iran fired two intermediate-range ballistic missiles at ‘Diego Garcia’, a joint US-UK military base in the middle of the Indian Ocean, according to the US officials, Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported. 

Iran’s targeting of Diego Garcia, about 4,000 kilometers away from Iran, implies its missiles have a greater range than Tehran has previously announed. 

Iran’s targeting of US faraway military base demonstrates its missile capability in targeting long-range positions.
