War Secretary Hegseth Warns Iran Has Missiles That Can Strike London…#

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth warned that Iran’s ballistic missiles can reach London and other European capitals, citing recent failed Iranian missile tests that demonstrated a previously undisclosed range capability.

Hegseth’s comments came after Iran launched two missiles at a target 4,000 kilometers away, with the UK government confirming both strikes missed. The Pentagon official said Iran had long claimed its missiles could only reach 2,000 kilometers, making the expanded range a significant concern for Western allies.

What Hegseth Said

“Two days ago they shot two failed missiles on a target 4,000km away,” Hegseth stated. “For years, they told the world that their missiles could only range [2,000] kilometres. Surprise. Yet again, Iran lied.”
