K-4 = K-1 with a (Radial Thrust controlled) Post Boost Phase Vehicle. They look identical.
Rezvan pierced through Saudi AD and K-4 emerged as a success after that.

Here is a dilemma for Israelis who are pushing US against IRGCASF's capabilities in talks.
JCPOA resulted in them asking for ranges to be lowered to below IRBM. I explained before how that was compensated by just marketing larger warheads for same missiles so range can be "written" on paper as lower. That was the trick IRGC played. But it wont work anymore.
IRGCASF's current longer ranged arsenal is made of 3 types of BMs (Sejjil-II, K-4, Ghadr-F), 2 TEL launched Tristaged SLVs (Qassed, Ghaem-100 both suspected ICBMs), 2 x Long ranged CMs (Meshkat/Soumar LACMs, Qadr AShCM). None of that worries Israel because none of them were or will be used against Israel. Instead their ABM/AD got messed up repeatedly by Kheybar Shikan I/II and Fattah-I Hypersonic missile which are barely MRBM themselves. They do not fall in range regime. So if not the range, what would US ask for to stop on behalf of Israelis ? Currently Fattah-I, Kheybar-Shikan I/II have an invincible record against multi layered Israel/US ABM/AD shield despite having ground, sea, space Sat-nav information from the time missile leaves its TEL. Qasim-Basir is another such weapon, probably the most advanced among IRGCASF's entire arsenal. If the americans name these missiles and ask for ceasing their production, that will be almost funny because how would they make sure these missiles are not being produced anymore? Let alone IRGCASF, even houthis operate these weapons.

I think the U.S. is entering with harsh demands so that their no-enrichment demand seems more reasonable. Two steps forward, one step back.
Few expect Iran to agree to reduce their ballistic missile inventory / range.

US's official position is that Iranian nuclear program is destroyed by Trumps stunt during war with Israel. There is no more official enrichment to LEU, HEU, WGU % so idea is false from baseline that US is going to ask for no enrichment, unless someone argues that US bombing was mutually agreed media theatrics and nuclear program is still intact and running.
Its easily disguised by showing larger warheads, TELed SLVs etc. Read my immediate previous posts in this thread.

The video is a contradiction itself.
Why should be a tread to the israelis (to the region and the world It is ridículous) if It was heavily damaged by them?.
And therefore, why to deal with iranians if their missiles bases are so easy targets.
After Rising Lion operation you never heard Netanyahu again to say "Irán It is at their weakest point".
This video is a pathetic attemp to grab some concerns from westerns countries. Even more, It is a implicit confession that Israel have finished all their military options to knock off Islamic Republic. They're using from US and this propaganda desperately to stop Islamic Republic. But someone in Pentagon is whispering Trump that this is a wasp nest.

Missile program of Iran is Non-Negotiable. Iran will keep its missiles till Judgment Day or when the day the world finally ends. No surrender. No concessions. No limits.

Iran demonstrated the launch of a Khorramshahr-4 ballistic missile, capable of delivering a 1.5-ton warhead 2,000 kilometers. The Khorramshahr-4 missile is billed as one of Iran's most advanced, fourth-generation, long-range missiles. It can reach speeds of Mach 8 and has a circular error probable (CEP) of approximately 30 meters. The Khorramshahr-4 missile is approximately 13 meters long and has a launch weight of approximately 30 tons. The missiles will be deployed in underground bases across Iran.

It is a good opportunity for China to learn about American weapons, tactics, deployment and effectiveness of its own intelligence gathering process in real-time of a possible war. This is useful, both for China to demonstrate that it can help Iran and to help itself on where the Americans are relative to its capabilities.
