'This strategic weapon is able to penetrate missile shields with great maneuverability'
Iran on Wednesday unveiled a new missile with a range of 900 miles - capable of hitting US bases throughout Middle East or locations in Israel, the semi-official Tasnim News Agency reported.
The missile was displayed during a visit by senior Iranian officials to Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) military bases, the agency said.
It was baptized Khaibar-buster, in reference to a battle in the 7th century which pitted the Prophet Mohammed and his Muslim followers against the Jews living in the oasis of Khaibar, in the northwest of present-day Saudi Arabia.
Israel's closest point to Iran is just over 600 miles away.
