☆ Iran flaunts a new ship-fired missile, but analysts say it's no game-changer
  + stars: | 2024-02-21 | by ( Paul Iddon | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
It's the first time Iran has launched a ballistic missile from a ship. The launch from the Shahid Mahdavi was, however, the first time Iran launched a ballistic missile from a ship. "The other benefit to Iran of this kind of weapon is it could attack Israel from axes that are less well-protected by Israeli missile defenses." AdvertisementDeploying SRBMs instead of cruise missiles on the Shahid Mahdavi and similar vessels could also have advantages. For one, the ballistic missiles Iran test-fired on Feb. 12 appear relatively small, around the same size as a cruise missile.

Named Tamazid after a nearby spring, the compound is, like Adrère Amellal, all earth tones, inside and out. It’s a notable departure for the designer, who’s best known for her inimitable use of color. Escher print; perspectives and proportions seem to shift, depending on the light or the angle where one stands. Stairs lead to terraces that overlook the compound and surrounding landscape — the blocky structure has few windows, and most of them are different sizes. “We’d decide where the windows should be according to the views and the sun” — but with Tamazid, she made traditional plans and models.

“Amore!”The words echoed through Studio Salvadore, a family-run glassblowing workshop on Murano, the Italian island near Venice known for its centuries-old glass industry. It was 3 p.m. on a Friday in late July, and Mr. Findletar had been making drinking glasses with a small team since around 6:30 in the morning. At the mouth of a furnace, colorful glass rods lined up on the head of a shovel were melting together. Mr. Findletar, 49, flicked water droplets at the glass, which would become a cup, to make bubbles. “I call this dirtying up the glass,” Mr. Findletar said.

Niloofar Hamedi took a photo of Amini's parents hugging each other in a Tehran hospital where their daughter was lying in a coma. A joint statement released by Iran’s intelligence ministry and the intelligence organisation of the Revolutionary Guards on Friday had accused Hamedi and Mohammadi of being CIA foreign agents. At least 40 journalists have been detained in the past six weeks, according to rights groups, and the number is growing. What began as outrage over Amini's death on Sept. 16 evolved into a popular revolt by people from all layers of society. CLERICS EXPECTED TO SURVIVEThe Revolutionary Guards and the volunteer militia Basij have crushed dissent in the past - in 2009 protests lasted six months.

Iran's Revolutionary Guards top commander warned protesters that Saturday would be their last day of taking to the streets, the harshest warning yet by Iranian authorities. Nevertheless, videos on social media, unverifiable by Reuters, showed confrontations between students and riot police and Basij forces in universities all over Iran. HISTORY OF CRACKDOWNSThe Guards and its affiliated Basij force have crushed dissent in the past. "So far, Basijis have shown restraint and they have been patient," the head of the Revolutionary Guards in the Khorasan Junubi province, Brigadier General Mohammadreza Mahdavi, was quoted as saying by the state news agency IRNA. A joint statement released by Iran’s intelligence ministry and the intelligence organisation of the Revolutionary Guards on Friday had accused Hamedi and Mohammadi of being CIA foreign agents.

A third of Americans reportedly have tattoos. There’s a good chance one of them is on Grandma. Roxana Nourishad , 18 years old, and her grandmother, Shoheila Mahdavi , 76, plan to get matching tattoos the next time they are together. They’re thinking envelopes with little hearts to represent their long-distance ties—Ms. Nourishad at college in Berkeley, Calif., and her grandmother in Dubai.
