Explosions on Kishm Island
Two explosions occurred on Kishm Island in southern Iran, the IRNA agency reported, according to which the impact hit the eastern part of the island. Local and provincial sources did not provide comments on the incident at the time of publication, so the causes of the explosions and possible consequences remain unknown.
IRGC statement on missile range
Separately from the reports of the explosions: the official representative of the IRGC, Brigadier General Hossein Mohebi, stated that Iran no longer limits the flight range of its missiles. According to him, Tehran intends to demonstrate in practice its capabilities to counter threats, and in conditions of asymmetric warfare, the Iranian armed forces are capable of striking where the enemy does not expect it. At the same time, the general did not specify what maximum range is now in question and which specific missile systems the decision will affect. The Life.ru publication does not establish a connection between this statement and the explosions on Kishm; both reports are presented as separate events.
