Washington, DC – Sources familiar with US intelligence have revealed that the United States can only confirm the destruction of about one-third of Iran’s missile arsenal.
This comes as the US-Israeli military campaign nears the end of its first month.
Uncertainty surrounds the rest of the arsenal
Sources indicate that the fate of approximately one-third of the Iranian missiles remains unclear.
However, it is believed they were damaged, partially destroyed, or buried in tunnels and underground facilities.
This underscores the difficulty in accurately assessing the results of the strikes.
Similar estimates for drones
In the same vein, intelligence assessments indicate that approximately
one-third of Iran’s missile and drone capabilities have been destroyed.
This comes amid varying levels of confidence in the accuracy of these assessments.
Challenges of assessing military damage
These figures reflect the complexities of military operations in fortified and tunnel-ridden environments.
This limits the ability to accurately assess casualties.
Meanwhile, US and Israeli forces continue their military operations, according to Reuters.
