Iran has test fired additional long and medium range missiles over the
Persian Gulf waters on the third day of military maneuvers.

The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) successfully test fired
various classes of missiles Thursday including shore to sea, surface to
surface and sea to air rockets in what is now the third day of a
large-scale military maneuver dubbed Great Prophet III.

IRGC forces also test fired the ‘Hoot Torpedo’, which only Iran and
another country are said to be capable of building.

On Wednesday, the IRGC fired nine long and medium range missiles
including the Shahab 1, 2, 3, Fateh and Zelzal rockets.

The maneuvers have also included IRGC scuba divers and marines who
conducted practice assaults with speed boats on hypothetical enemy
targets.
