Iran has been kicked out of an international defense show in Malaysia for exhibiting missile equipment in violation of U.N. rules , an official said Thursday.

Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Najib Razak said Iranian companies were ordered out of the Defense Services Asia show Tuesday because their exhibition was deemed “offensive.” “Unfortunately, when we came around to inspecting their stand, they displayed equipment that clearly contravened the U.N. resolution—equipment such as missiles and missile systems and others,” Najib told reporters.
