Share on:

U.S. officials have announced a significant decrease in Iranian ballistic missile attacks since the start of hostilities between the U.S. and Iran. According to the Pentagon, the decrease is around 90%.

The head of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), Admiral Brad Cooper, stated that U.S. forces have sunk more than 30 Iranian ships, including a drone carrier.

Defense Secretary Pit Hegseth emphasized that the U.S. maintains control of the pace of operations and that the conflict could last up to eight weeks. "We set the pace," Hegseth said, adding that U.S. ammunition is full and resolve is unwavering.

Hegseth estimated that Iran is miscalculating that the U.S. will not be able to sustain military pressure for long.
