US Defense Secretary says Iran lied about missile range after Diego Garcia launch

US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth commented on Iran's long-range missile launch toward the Diego Garcia base, located approximately 4,000 km from Iran. "For years, the Iranians told the world that their missiles could only reach a range of two kilometers. Surprise, Iran lied again," Hegseth stated, highlighting the discrepancy between Iran's previous claims about its missile capabilities and the demonstrated range.
