Iran test fired a new long-range missile, Iran's English-language television station Press TV reported on Sunday.

The report, however, did not elaborate further on the details.

Iran's new test of a long-range missile comes amid the global efforts to sooth the tension between Iran and the West over its nuclear program.

On Wednesday, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari said that Israel nuclear sites are within the reach of its missiles.

"All the nuclear sites in the every part of the occupied lands by the Zionist regime (Israel) are within the reach of Iran's missiles," Jafari was quoted as saying.
