Iran International:

Tehran must proceed with a nuclear test at the earliest opportunity, an Iranian lawmaker said on Saturday, amid reports in Tehran media of an intercontinental ballistic missile test.

“A nuclear test, along with its formal announcement, must not be delayed,” member of parliament Ahmad Naderi posted on X.

His comment comes alongside a video widely circulated on social media, which some believe shows an intercontinental ballistic missile test in Shahroud, northern Iran. Naderi, the only political figure speaking about the matter, refrained from confirming specifics, simply saying this development was “nothing unexpected.”

Iran has an array of medium-range ballistic missiles capable of reaching Israel, but extending their range could put European countries within striking distance.

Last month, an Israeli airstrike targeted multiple sites, including a key IRGC missile facility in Shahroud in north-central Iran, where satellite imagery from Planet Labs later showed significant damage to a ballistic missile and space rocket launch site.
