WASHINGTON, Feb 3 (Reuters) - The White House on Tuesday said there was "acute concern" over Iran's actions on a day when Tehran said it had launched a satellite into orbit.

"Efforts to develop missile delivery capability, efforts that continue on an illicit nuclear program, or threats that Iran makes toward Israel, and its sponsorship of terror are of acute concern to this administration," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said.
