Iran today test-fired missiles in the Gulf for a second consecutive day.The weapons fired in the Gulf by the naval section of the Revolutionary Guards included shore-to-sea, surface-to-surface and sea-to-air missiles, state television said. No details were given on the names of the missiles.
The range of the Shahab-3 would allow it to reach Israel, Pakistan, and U.S. bases in the Persian Gulf region. Pictures broadcast showed several missiles being fired into the night sky.
Images were also broadcast of the naval manoeuvres, showing divers fixing mines to a pier, missiles fired from shore-based mobile launchers to the sea and the Hoot speeding towards a target.

The reports emerged soon after the U.S. secretary of state said Washington would defend Israel against any threats of aggression from Iran.
Israel is today expected to showcase an advanced spy plane. The plane was first unveiled a year ago but Israel's Army Radio reported that it was to be shown now in response to Iran's missile tests.
