U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has reported a significant reduction in Iran's ballistic missile attacks, noting a 90% decrease, ABC News reports.
"Their ability to manufacture new ballistic missiles has probably taken the hardest hit of all ballistic missile attacks against our forces down 90% since the start of the conflict. Same with one way attack UAVs," Hegseth said on Thursday.
This development marks a notable shift in Iran's military activities.
The reduction in missile attacks could have implications for regional stability and U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East. The reasons behind this decrease were not detailed, but it may reflect changes in Iran's strategic priorities or external pressures.
This update comes amid ongoing tensions between the U.S. and Iran, with both countries navigating complex geopolitical dynamics.
