Iran has successfully launched its Sorayya satellite into orbit, Iranian state media reported.

The satellite was put into a 750 km orbit, the highest successfully reached by Iran, the reports said.

The 50 kg satellite was launched by the Qaem 100, a three-stage solid-fuel rocket built by the elite military Revolutionary Guards, they said.

The launch was part of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards’ space program alongside Iran’s civilian space program, the report said.
