Iran’s army says weapons systems damaged during war ‘rebuilt’
New weapons systems have come through the defence industry and the army, while others have been imported from abroad, enhancing Iran's combat capabilities.
Iran's military has asserted that all weapons systems damaged during the ongoing Middle East conflict have been restored and replaced with new equipment. The army's spokesperson, Mohammad Akraminia, made the announcement on state television. He stated that systems from all military branches have been repaired, and additional systems have been procured, both domestically and from abroad, bolstering the nation's combat capabilities.
The protracted hostilities, initiated by the US and Israel with a barrage of strikes on Iran on February 28, concluded on April 8 with a ceasefire, though intermittent skirmishes persist near the vital Strait of Hormuz. Despite the cessation of the full-scale war, Akraminia emphasized that Iran has undergone a significant shift in its military policy, moving from a defensive stance to an offensive one.
He reiterated that preemptive strikes, adhering to international law and the Charter, are permissible provided they are proportionate and necessary.
