04/03/2009 A top Iranian military commander declared on Wednesday that the country has missiles that can reach the nuclear sites of its arch-foe Israel.

"Today the Islamic republic has missiles with a range of more than 2,000 kilometers (1,250 miles) and... all the land of the Zionist regime, including its nuclear installations, is within our range," Mohammad Ali Jafari, the head of Iran's Revolutionary Guards Corps, told the ISNA news agency.

"All the nuclear facilities in different parts of the land under the occupation of the Zionist regime are in the reach of Iran's missile defenses," the commander-in-chief of the Revolutionary Guards, Mohammad Ali Jafari, said according to Iran's ISNA news agency.

"The doctrine of our system is defensive, but in the case of any action by enemies, including the Zionist regime, we will respond firmly using missiles and deter attacks," Jafari pointed out. He said neither the US nor the Israeli military "had the ability" to strike Iran.
