Benjamin Netanyahu warned in an interview that Iran is reportedly developing intercontinental ballistic missiles that, once they achieve the required range, could reach American cities like New York, Boston, and Washington — even the residence of US President Donald Trump. In his conversation with Ben Shapiro, Netanyahu stated that Iran is “developing missiles with a range of 8,000 kilometers,” highlighting the possibility of future range extension toward the US East Coast.
Iran: Tehran’s current arsenal includes missiles with approximately 2,000 km range
This statement raises concerns, but experts and analyses note that documented assessments of Tehran’s existing arsenal mainly reference missiles with approximately 2,000 km range — coverage that primarily spans the Middle East region.
It should be noted that Iran possesses a significant stockpile of ballistic missiles, including medium and long-range weapons systems that have previously struck or threatened areas near Israel.
