Footage claiming to show a secret Iranian underground naval base was made public by Tehran’s state television on Saturday - the second video the Islamic Republic has released of its arsenal ahead of US President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration.
The footage was reportedly taken at the site located some 500m below an undisclosed location in the Gulf.
Tehran claimed the speedboats filmed were a new generation Taregh-class radar-evading speedboats - capable of launching cruise missiles.
The footage was released ahead of Trump’s inauguration - an event that may bring some concern to the Islamic Republic’s rulers, according to Sky News and Reuters.
