Extending an iteration is usually done just so the team can feel they finished. That is the wrong behavior – the team needs to know they did NOT succeed in this case! Velocity is based on the amount of work completed in an iteration.
Can we extend sprint time?
The Sprint length should remain predictable. In the real world, it's occasionally necessary to make a Sprint shorter, move end-of-Sprint events up, or reduce the volume of work planned for the iteration. However, you should never extend a Sprint in order to accomplish more work.
How long is an iteration in safe?
