The move was reportedly to be announced this week, leading President Hassan Rouhani to order Defense Minister Hossein Dehghan to expand the program as a response.

On Friday, the Revolutionary Guards' second-in-command, Brigadier General Hossein Salami, reportedly said, "As long as the United States supports Israel we will expand our missile capabilities."
