Iran’s navy celebrated Thursday as it successfully test-fired a new cruise missile just weeks after 19 of its sailors were killed and 15 others seriously injured in a friendly fire incident.
The armed forces’ website published pictures of the drill (above) in the Gulf of Oman showing missiles being fired from a warship and the back of a truck, and a vessel exploding out at sea.
A statement carried by state media said both short- and long-range missiles were test-fired in the exercise, codenamed Ramadan Martyrs, in a “naval combat war game in the Sea of Oman and the northern parts of the Indian Ocean.
