TBM = theater ballistic missile = 300 to 3500 mile range
IRBM = intermediate range ballistic missile = 3500 to 5500 mile range
The Jerusalem Post is reporting on an article in Germany's Die Welt. Looks to be a TBM & IRBM base with silos, which would mean missiles could not only reach Venezuela's neighbors but eventually the southern US as well. This is also starting to be reported in other US sources.
Not good. This could be the straw that breaks the camels back.

That means two of the world's most dangerous regimes, the self-described "axis of unity," will be acting together in our backyard on the development of nuclear and missile technology. And it seems that terrorist groups have found the perfect operating ground for training and planning, and financing their activities through narco-trafficking.
The Iranian nuclear and long-range missile threats, and creeping Iranian influence in the Western Hemisphere, cannot be overlooked. My office and other law-enforcement agencies can help ensure that money laundering, terror financing, and sanctions violations are not ignored, and that criminals and the banks that aid Iran will be discovered and prosecuted. But U.S. law enforcement alone is not enough to counter the threat.
