Iran unveiled a long-range missile Wednesday that has the capability to strike US bases in the region and hit targets inside archenemy Israel as indirect talks between Washington and Tehran meant to salvage the 2015 nuclear agreement resume in Vienna. State television displayed the new surface-to-surface ballistic missile called the Khaibar-buster — referring to the Jewish oasis Khaibar in present-day Saudi Arabia that was overrun by Muslim warriors in the 7th century. “This long-range missile is domestically manufactured by the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) … It has high accuracy and is propelled by solid fuel and is capable of penetrating missile shields,” Iranian state media reported.
