Iran Claims Most of Its Missile Arsenal "Unused" in Conflict with US
(MENAFN) Iran's Defense Ministry declared Saturday that the bulk of the country's missile capabilities were held in reserve during its conflict with the United States, signaling the military remains substantially intact, a semi-official news agency reported.
Brigadier General Reza Talaei-Nik said a considerable share of the country's arsenal was deliberately withheld throughout the fighting.
"Our forces maintained complete air superiority over the occupied territories of the Zionist (Israeli) territory, and a portion of our missile capabilities were utilized during the 40-day war," he said.
On naval operations, Talaei-Nik claimed Iranian forces repeatedly drove hostile warships back hundreds of kilometers from the Sea of Oman through direct confrontations.
Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has been heavily disrupted since the U.S. and Israel launched military operations against Iran on Feb. 28, sending shockwaves through global energy markets and stoking fears of lasting economic fallout.
