Iran said Saturday it successfully tested a "strategic missile" and delivered it to its armed forces, state-run radio reported.  

 

Defense Minister Ali Shamkhani declined to give details about the missile for "security reasons," but said Tehran was "prepared to confront all regional and extra-regional threats," the report said.  

 

"This strategic missile was successfully test fired during military exercises by the Revolutionary Guards and delivered to the armed forces," Shamkhani was quoted as saying. The exercises were held Sept. 12-18. (albawaba.com)
