According to analysts, the ship could have been involved in the transportation of weapons and components.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1091\" data-end=\"1332\"> According to Defense Express, in addition to the Khorramshahr, Iran has the Ghadr, Emad, and Sejjil missiles, which have a range of about 2,000 kilometers. This is enough to strike Ukrainian territory from the northern regions of Iran.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1334\" data-end=\"1582\"> Analysts say the Khorramshahr missile could be equipped with a submunition warhead, which Iran has already used in attacks on Israel. Such a system is designed to hit large areas and complicate missile defenses.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1584\" data-end=\"1948\"> Defence Express notes that effective interception of Iranian medium-range ballistic missiles requires specialized missile defense systems, including THAAD, Arrow-2 and Arrow-3. Patriot systems have only limited capabilities to counter such targets, and the effectiveness of their use depends on the characteristics of the specific missile.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1584\" data-end=\"1948\"> As a reminder, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of attacking an Iranian merchant ship. <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/iran-zvynuvatyv-ukrainu-u-zmovi-z-izrailem-dlia-v-ataky-suden-u-kaspiyskomu-mori\/\">He also stated that Ukraine&#8217;s actions &#8220;cannot go unanswered.&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n<p> Also follow <strong>\u201cPryamim\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Facebook<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">X<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a> , and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iran has medium-range ballistic missiles capable of hitting targets in Ukraine.
