Iran missile raid on ISIS misses mark

Iran’s ballistic missile strike on ISIS targets in Syria missed the mark, US’s Washington Post reported on Wednesday, with missiles striking areas outside Deir al-Zor and even Iraqi territory.

Out of the seven ballistic missiles fired at ISIS havens in Deir al-Zor, only two have hit the targets, Israel’s Haaretz reported.

Two landed in areas surrounding the haven, with three landing in Iraq, according to a report citing Israeli military sources.

Tehran reported that the strikes had destroyed “headquarters and gathering centers of Takfiri terrorists supporting and building car bombs,” said a statement by Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, broadcast by Tasnim news Sunday.
