\n

Iran announced<\/a> Sunday that it tested a new naval air defense missile during military drills in the Strait of Hormuz as the United States continues to increase its military presence in the region.<\/p>\n

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy launched the Sayyad 3-G missile for the first time during the “Smart Control of the Strait of Hormuz” exercise, according to Iran\u2019s state-linked Mehr News Agency.<\/p>\n

The Sayyad 3-G, a naval adaptation of Iran\u2019s land-based Sayyad-3 air defense system, is reported to have a range of approximately 150 kilometers (about 93 miles) and can be fired from ship-based vertical launch systems<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The missile is intended to intercept military aircraft, maritime patrol planes and high-altitude unmanned aerial vehicles.<\/p>\n

PRESIDENT TRUMP’S IRAN BUILDUP MIRRORS 2003 IRAQ WAR SCALE AS TENSIONS ESCALATE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Iranian state media said it can integrate into a ship\u2019s onboard radar systems and command-and-control network while also maintaining independent tracking capability.<\/p>\n

The announcement comes amid heightened regional tensions<\/a> and a continued U.S. military buildup in the Gulf as Washington holds talks with Tehran over its nuclear program.<\/p>\n

The U.S. currently has a significant buildup of naval and air assets positioned around Iran, particularly across the eastern Mediterranean, the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf.<\/p>\n

IRAN SAYS US MUST ‘PROVE THEY WANT TO DO A DEAL’ ON NUCLEAR TALKS IN GENEVA<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The U.S. has been building up forces in the region, including the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier and multiple guided-missile destroyers operating in the Arabian Sea, as well as additional destroyers stationed in the Mediterranean and Red Sea.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Several combat ships are also positioned in the Persian Gulf near Iran\u2019s southern coastline.<\/p>\n

At least one U.S. military base<\/a> in Saudi Arabia is shown hosting aircraft, with additional installations across the region supporting air operations and logistics.<\/p>\n

TRUMP SAYS IRAN HAS 15 DAYS TO REACH A DEAL OR FACE ‘UNFORTUNATE’ OUTCOME<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

In an interview Sunday<\/u><\/a> on CBS News\u2019 “Face the Nation,” Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said diplomacy remains the only path forward and dismissed the impact of the U.S. military buildup.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“There is no need for any military buildup, and military buildup cannot help it and cannot pressurize us,” he said.<\/p>\n

Araghchi confirmed that Iranian and U.S. negotiators are expected to meet again Thursday in Geneva, saying he believes it is “quite possible” to prepare a draft text and reach a deal quickly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He added that talks are focused solely on nuclear issues<\/a> and “there is no other subject.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
