IRGC Begins Second Phase of Naval Drill with Missiles and Drones

Iran’s Revolutionary Guards launched the second phase of a naval drill on Friday, firing volleys of ballistic and cruise missiles at targets in the Oman Sea. Qadr 110, Qadr 380 and Qadir cruise missiles, along with the 303 ballistic missile, were fired from locations inside Iran and struck preselected targets at sea, according to the state media, The Caspian Post reports citing Iranian media. Drone units also carried out attacks on simulated enemy bases, and naval air defense systems practiced responses to aerial threats against fast boats and coastal positions. The exercise is taking place in the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz and around Iran’s southern islands, waters where Iranian officials have at times said traffic could be restricted during periods of tension.
