Ghasem Rouyanbakhsh, the representative for Qom in the parliament, told Iran Watch: “In this war, we targeted the regional bases of various countries. If distant countries, including European countries like Britain, want to join with the United States and attack us, we can target even their infrastructure and bases by increasing the range of our missiles.”

This member of parliament said on Saturday, 16 Aban: “For example, with a range of 4,000 kilometers, we can target Britain and there is no longer any consideration.”

Rouyanbakhsh added: “They constantly beg for talks and dialogue, and on the other hand they say that the Islamic Republic has no weapons or missiles. Well, if Iran has no missiles, hit it and finish it—then why do you keep hesitating to carry out operations?”
