Iran says to target USS Abraham Lincoln carrier if it moves within range

Iran's navy chief Shahram Irani said Sunday that the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier would be targeted by the Islamic republic if it comes within range.

"As soon as the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group comes within firing range, we will avenge the blood of the martyrs of the Dena warship by launching various types of sea-to-sea missiles," Irani was quoted as saying by state TV, referring to an Iranian frigate sunk by the U.S. on March 4.
