This statement comes amid rising tensions with the United States in the Persian Gulf and after Iran unveiled new ships equipped with 600 km range missiles last week.

"This missile, which is a new generation of Iranian-made cruise missiles, is currently being tested and will be a new chapter in Iran's defense power," the agency noted.
