Emad (missile)
Emad ( fa, عماد, lit=pillar) is an Iranian-designed, Liquid-propellant rocket, liquid-fuel, medium-range ballistic missile (MRBM), a derivative of Shahab-3. Description The Emad can carry a 750 kg payload at a range of 1700 km with 10 m accuracy. It uses a new nose cone design, which is different from that of the original Shahab-3. The changed design may also make it possible for the warhead to detonate high above a target, which makes it more suitable for an air burst chemical, biological or nuclear weapon detonation, as well as for nuclear electromagnetic pulse attack.The missile was presented by brigadier general, Brigadier General Hossein Dehghan on 11 October 2015.

Sanctions Against Iran
There have been a number of sanctions against Iran imposed by a number of countries, especially the United States, and international entities. Iran was the most sanctioned country in the world until it was surpassed by Russia following its invasion of neighboring Ukraine in February 2022. The first sanctions were imposed by the United States in November 1979 after a group of radical students seized the American Embassy in Tehran and took hostages. These sanctions were lifted in January 1981 after the hostages were released, but they were reimposed by the United States in 1987 in response to Iran's actions from 1981 to 1987 against the U.S. and vessels of other countries in the Persian Gulf and support for terrorism. The sanctions were expanded in 1995 to include firms dealing with the Iranian government. The third sanctions were imposed in December 2006 pursuant to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1737 after Iran refused to comply with United Nations Security Cou ...
