Iran's Defense Minister Hossein Dehghan denied on Monday that the Revolutionary Guards had recently tested a medium-range ballistic missile but reiterated that Tehran had not stopped bolstering what it insists is a purely defensive arsenal, Haaretz news agency reports.
Earlier, the Tasnim news agency quoted Brigadier General Ali Abdollahi as saying Iran had successfully tested a precision-guided missile two weeks ago with a range of 2,000 km.
"We haven't test-fired a missile with the range media reported," Iranian Defense Minister Hossein Dehghan was quoted as saying by the state news agency IRNA.
