AFP: Iran has more missiles than it can hide: General
Tehran (AFP) - Iran's Revolutionary Guards have so many missiles they don't know where to hide them, a senior commander said at Friday prayers, after the United States threatened to impose fresh sanctions.
"We lack enough space in our stockpiles to house our missiles," said General Hossein Salami, the Guards' deputy, as a row with the US over Iran's ballistic missile programme deepened.
"Hundreds of long tunnels are full of missiles ready to fly to protect your integrity, independence and freedom," he told worshippers in Tehran, promising to never "stop developing our defence deterrent".
Iranian state television aired in October unprecedented footage of such an underground missile base.

Most of the weapons in Yemen are Cold War stockpiles looted from Yemen Army depots.
The Houthi's are so adept at war, that they are hitting AARAMCO refineries and Saudi bases, with Quahir 1 missiles, which is a Yemeni conversion and modification of an old, obsolete SAM-3 anti-aircraft missile, into a ballistic missile.
