Tehran, May 10, IRNA -- Defense Minister Brigadier General Hossein Dehqan rejected reports by some media that Iran has test-fired long-range ballistic missile.

'We have not have missile test with the range as published in some media,' General Dehqan said.

He reiterated that the Americans and Saudi are trying to propagate the atmosphere of tension or they have put Iranophobia projects at the top of their agenda and to link anything that takes place related to this issue.

General Dehqan said that Iran's military doctrine is defense-oriented and anything that happens is related to this issue.

'We have never moved with an offensive outlook and whatever we do is aimed at boosting the country's defense capabilities.

He, meantime, underlined that development of Iran's missile program will never stop.
