(27 Sep 2009) HEADLINE: Iran test-fires short-range missiles
CAPTION: Iran said it successfully test-fired short-range missiles during military drills Sunday by the elite Revolutionary Guard, a show of force days after the U.S. warned Tehran over a newly revealed underground nuclear facility it was secretly constructing. (Sept. 27)
[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE]
NB. THIS IS A VOICEOVER TRANSCRIPT, NOT A FULL SHOT LIST.
IRANIAN TELEVISION SHOWED WHAT IT SAYS WAS A SUCCESSFUL TEST FIRING OF SHORT RANGE MISSILES. THE SHOW OF FORCE COMES DAYS AFTER THE U.S. WARNED TEHRAN OVER A NEWLY REVEALED UNDERGROUND NUCLEAR FACILITY.
(Farsi/General Hossein Salami, commander of Revolutionary Guard Air Force:
"For the first time, we tried out multi-rocket launchers which are capable of simultaneously launching several rockets in order to increase the firing volume onto a single target, and this is the specific purpose of this manoeuvre.")
THE COMMANDER OF THE REVOLUTIONARY GUARD FORCE ALSO SAID SAID IRAN TESTED A MULTIPLE MISSILE LAUNCHER FOR THE FIRST TIME. GENERAL HOSSEIN SALAMI SAID IRAN WOULD TEST MEDIUM-RANGE MISSILES SUNDAY NIGHT AND LONG-RANGE MISSILES ON MONDAY.
THE TESTS CAME TWO DAYS AFTER THE U.S. AND ITS ALLIES DISCLOSED THAT IRAN HAD BEEN SECRETLY DEVELOPING A PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN UNDERGROUND URANIUM ENRICHMENT FACILITY. THE SITE IN THE ARID MOUNTAINS NEAR THE HOLY CITY OF (KOHM) QOM IS BELIEVED TO BE INSIDE A HEAVILY GUARDED, UNDERGROUND FACILITY. AFTER THE STRONG CONDEMNATIONS FROM THE U.S. AND ITS ALLIES, IRAN SAID SATURDAY IT WILL ALLOW U.N. NUCLEAR INSPECTORS TO EXAMINE THE SITE.
(SOT: Hillary Clinton, US Secretary of State)
"Well it is always welcome when Iran makes a decision to comply with the international rules and regulations and particularly with respect to the IAEA.
BY U.S. ESTIMATES, IRAN IS ONE TO FIVE YEARS AWAY FROM HAVING A NUCLEAR WEAPONS CAPABILITY. U.S. INTELLIGENCE ALSO BELIEVES THAT IRANIAN LEADERS HAVE NOT YET MADE THE DECISION TO BUILD A WEAPON.
IRAN ALSO IS DEVELOPING A LONG-RANGE BALLISTIC MISSILE THAT COULD CARRY A NUCLEAR WARHEAD, BUT THE ADMINISTRATION BELIEVES THAT EFFORT HAS BEEN SLOWED.
