U.S. Intelligence Confirms Iran’s Missile Capabilities Remain Intact Amidst Ongoing Tensions

Recent U.S. intelligence reports indicate that Iran retains substantial missile capabilities, undermining claims that its military has been significantly weakened. Despite pressures and military actions from the Trump administration, Iran reportedly has maintained access to around 70% of its pre-war missile stockpile and can withstand a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz for several months. Analysis shows that Tehran has rebuilt operational access to numerous missile sites, with 30 of 33 sites reported as operational. Experts warn that Iran’s resilience poses a significant challenge for U.S. strategies in the region and contradicts the narrative of a decimated Iranian military.
