Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said in a televised press conference on Monday that Tehran has not sent hypersonic missiles to the Houthis in Yemen, a day after the group announced that the missile it fired at Israel was hypersonic.

Pezeshkian said, “It takes a week to travel to Yemen (from Iran), so how did this missile get there? We don’t have such missiles to give to Yemen.”

However, Iran unveiled last year what it described as its first domestically produced hypersonic ballistic missile, with state media publishing images of the missile, named “Fateh,” during a ceremony.
