Strikes Hobble Iranian Missile Threat As Concerns Over Interceptor Stockpile Mount
U.S. and Israeli strikes have degraded Iran's offensive missile capacity by 86% from the first day of fighting, Air Force Gen. Dan Caine, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, announced. Military operations have shifted from standoff munitions to direct precision strikes using JDAMs and Hellfire missiles, allowing deeper penetration into Iranian territory. The Trump administration plans Friday meetings with defense contractors to accelerate weapons production, signaling replenishment needs after sustained high-tempo operations. Iran has also claimed a U.S. strike hit a girls' school, killing more than 175 people — an allegation U.S. officials say they are investigating.
