Iran showcased a new ballistic missile, the Jihad, with a 1,000 km range, and an upgraded Shahed-136B drone with a 4,000 km range during a military parade in Tehran. The unveiling comes amid increasing tensions in the Middle East, following the Hamas-Israel conflict that erupted on October 7. Western countries, including the U.S., allege that Iran has supplied missiles and drones to Russia for its war in Ukraine, a claim Tehran denies. Iran's Revolutionary Guards highlighted their growing defense capabilities, calling for unity among Islamic nations against Israel's actions in Gaza and Lebanon.
