Iran Says Missile and Drone Launchers Rebuilt Faster During Ceasefire
The claim follows U.S.-Israeli strikes to blunt Iran’s missile force.
Overview
- IRGC Aerospace Force commander Majid Mousavi, speaking to Iran’s Nournews on Sunday, said teams are updating and refilling missile and drone launch pads faster than before the war.
- An edited video showing him touring an underground missile site ran with the claim, which Reuters said it could not verify.
- He claimed the U.S. and Israel failed to rebuild their stocks during the pause in fighting.
- In the same message, he said Iran had gained the upper hand in the region, citing the Strait of Hormuz and Lebanon.
- Reuters noted the assertions come after earlier U.S.-Israeli attacks intended to weaken Iran’s missile force, and the true state of Iran’s arsenal remains unclear without independent verification.
