Iran has recently purchased BM-25 surface-to-surface missiles from North Korea that put European countries within firing range, Israel’s military intelligence chief, Maj. Gen. Amos Yadlin, has been quoted as saying today.

The missiles, which have a range of 1,550 miles, are capable of carrying nuclear warheads, and part of the shipment has already reached Iran, the Haaretz daily newspaper reported.
