U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee has raised concerns about Iran's rapid advancement in ballistic missile technology, stating that the country has significantly increased the range of its missiles. Between the summer of 2025 and spring of 2026, Iran reportedly extended the reach of its ballistic missiles from 2,000 kilometers to 4,100 kilometers.
