Iran says it has test-fired a new solid-fuel, surface-to-surface missile. It is the second time this week Iran has announced a new rocket. The launch of what the government called a new version of Iran’s Fateh 110 surface-to-surface missile was shown on government TV, following a series of other alleged new defense technology developments during the past week.
