Trump says Iran retains about 22% of its missile arsenal

Iran still has about 21-22% of the missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) available at the time of the start of the military operation by the United States and Israel. This was announced on June 5 by the head of the White House, Donald Trump.

"They still have missiles. They still have drones. As a percentage, they probably have about 21-22% of their missile arsenal left. It's still a lot of rockets," he said in an interview with NBC News posted on his YouTube channel.

The American president added that most of the factories for the production of rocket technology had been destroyed, but Tehran still had "certain capabilities."

Neither war nor peace: what will the new exchanges of blows between Iran and the United States lead to?

Washington and Tehran are stuck in a gray area of negotiations, but still want to make a deal.

CNN reported on May 28 that Iran is rapidly rebuilding its missile arsenal after the US-Israeli bombing. New satellite data shows that Iran has regained access to vast stockpiles of missiles stored in underground arsenals. This casts doubt on Trump's claims that the American army has almost completely destroyed the military potential of the Islamic Republic.
