Today's Bad News

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) -- Iran says it has successfully tested an upgraded version of its longest-range solid-fuel missile.

State TV reported the news Wednesday without providing details on the test of the Sajjil-2 missile.

The Sajjil is a solid fuel, high-speed missile with a range of about 1,200 miles (1,930 kilometers), placing Iran's sworn enemy Israel well within range and reaching as far away as southeastern Europe with greater precision than earlier models.
