Hosein Aqayi, a member of the Iran International editorial board, while referring to the Islamic Republic’s repeated threats against the RAF air base at Fairford in Britain, said that the Islamic Republic’s missile program no longer only threatens Israel and countries in the region, and could also put European NATO member countries at risk.

Referring to technical estimates about an increase in the range of the Islamic Republic’s ballistic missiles, he added that this government, by using a hybrid warfare strategy, seeks to raise the cost of military confrontation for the United States and Europe and to force them to accept a deal with special privileges.

Aqayi emphasized that the continuation of this situation should not be taken to mean the absence of war; rather, the Islamic Republic is effectively carrying out hybrid war against the United States, Europe, and the countries of the region.
