Agency: Iran to hold maneuvers with missiles
The announcement coincides with the beginning of a European Union oil embargo meant to pressure Iran over its nuclear program. The West suspects Iran wants to build nuclear weapons, and Israel has hinted at an attack if diplomatic efforts and sanctions fail to eliminate the threat.
Iran insists its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, like power generation and cancer treatment.
Gen. Hajizadeh threatened that if Israel plans any attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, "They will provide us a reason to remove Israel from the earth."
