Manama (Bahrain): Amidst the ongoing tensions with Israel, Iran has created a stir by claiming to have successfully launched into space. Tehran claimed the successful launch on Monday. This is part of its latest launch program, which is criticized by Western countries. Western countries allege that this program is promoting Tehran’s ballistic missile program. Let us tell you that this was a very secret launch program of Iran. After the launch was successful, information about it was shared by Iran.
Iran carried out this launch through its ‘Simorg’ vehicle capable of carrying satellites. Other countries including Israel and America have started reviewing this launch by Iran and are taking full caution. Let us tell you that many earlier attempts to launch this vehicle by Iran have failed. This launch was done from ‘Imam Khomeini Spaceport’ located in Semnan province of Iran. The success of the launch could not be immediately independently confirmed. But Iran claimed it was successful.
Iran’s launch important amid tension in the Middle East
This launch has been announced by Iran at a time when tensions are increasing in West Asia due to Israel’s ongoing war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip and the weak ceasefire agreement in Lebanon. The US had earlier said Iran’s satellite launches violate UN Security Council resolutions and had asked Tehran not to take any activities related to ballistic missiles capable of carrying nuclear weapons.
