Iran’s Missile Arsenal Poses ‘Growing Threat’ to Europe

Iran’s swelling missile arsenal has become a source of terror. Its missile developments have yielded a missile capable of striking the Continent, causing European leaders to feel "gravely concerned."

On November 19, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force launched four missiles at Israel’s Golan Heights, sending citizens rushing to bomb shelters. All four missiles were successfully intercepted by Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system. The system is activated based on where the missile is calculated to land, indicating that each missile was projected to hit an Israeli population center. Iran’s missile arsenal used to be considered ineffective and inaccurate, but this is no longer the case.

"Iran has the largest and most diverse ballistic missile arsenal in the Middle East," capable of striking targets up to 2,000 kilometers away, reaching both Israel and southwestern Europe, stated a November 19 United States Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) report.
