Washington, DC – Admiral Brad Cooper, commander of US Central Command (CENTCOM), announced a significant strategic advance in the fifth week of large-scale military operations against Iranian regime targets. These developments come amid close monitoring of events in the United States. In a press statement, Cooper asserted that a substantial portion of Iran’s military capabilities have been completely neutralized, emphasizing that Tehran has lost its effective ability to maneuver and deter attacks on the ground.
Complete paralysis of the fleet and air defense
Admiral Cooper explained that the Iranian naval fleet no longer has any effective ability to move in the region’s waters, saying: “We don’t see their fleet moving, we don’t see their planes flying in the skies, and their integrated air and missile defense systems have been largely destroyed,” which gives US forces absolute air and naval control over the theater of operations.
Total goals: 12,300 shots on target
In a detailed report issued by Central Command, the US military revealed that it had attacked more than 12,300 military targets since the start of operations against Iran. These strikes prioritized direct threat centers and security apparatuses, including the destruction of more than 155 warships and submarines belonging to the ruling regime, representing a significant blow to the Iranian navy.
Map of the target bank for destruction
According to a CENTCOM report issued on Wednesday, April 1, the targets destroyed so far have included vital and sensitive sectors, most notably:
The command pyramid: command and control centers, Revolutionary Guard command buildings, and its intelligence sites.
Missile capabilities: Ballistic and anti-ship missile sites, and drone production facilities.
Defense systems: Integrated air defense systems for the Air Force and surface-to-air missile facilities.
Military infrastructure: military communications capabilities, strategic ammunition depots, and storage and logistical support facilities.
Military observers believe that the scale of the damage inflicted on Iranian military infrastructure reflects the intensity and precision of Operation Epic Wrath, which aims to definitively end Iranian threats to international navigation and the security of neighboring countries, in light of Iran’s clear inability to repel successive waves of concentrated bombing.
