The commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps warned on Friday that Israel and American military bases in the Middle East are all within the range of Iranian missiles, Press TV reported. Although Tehran has repeatedly assured that its missiles are no threat to other countries, Brigadier General Mohammad Ali Jafari said that Iran is capable of targeting the military bases of both countries. “Although we are capable of increasing the range of our missiles, we don’t think it would be necessary because today our extra-regional enemy — the Zionist regime of [Israel] — is within the range of our missiles,” Jafari said. “As for the American forces — if they were to back Israeli threats — they would be closer to us than them (the Israeli) and [therefore,] they would be within the range of our firepower as well,” he added.
