An Iranian Shahab-3 missile is launched during a military maneuver dubbed "al-Rasoul al-Aazam," or Greater Prophet, in the Persian Gulf 1,000 kilometers south of Tehran on July 9, 2008. The Iranian military reportedly test-fired nine missiles Wednesday, including one that Tehran claims can reach Israel. The missiles tested were long and medium range arms, including a new version of the Shahab-3 Iranian officials said can strike targets 1,250 miles away, the New York Times reported. Iran warned Israel and the United States it would retaliate against an attack. Israel has expressed concern about Iran's nuclear capabilities. (UPI Photo/Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards office)
