This came in a press statement made by Talaei on Monday, according to Iran’s ‘Mehr’ news agency. The Iranian defense spokesperson confirmed that the modernization of weapons and the enhancement of offensive and defensive capabilities are proceeding regularly, emphasizing that local manufacturing mechanisms ensure the continuous development process without interruption. The Iranian official explained that the ability to produce equipment has greatly increased to meet the needs of the armed forces, noting that it has surpassed previous levels. The defense ministry spokesperson stressed that the presence of extensive local mechanisms has protected the country from any disruption in the updating and production of the equipment and weapons needed by the armed forces.
It is noteworthy that Israel and Iran exchanged airstrikes and missile attacks from June 13 to June 24. The conflict included Iran bombing strategic targets and Israel destroying several vital targets in Iran, as well as US and Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, followed by an Iranian attack on the US Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar on June 24, before US President Donald Trump announced that the parties had reached a ceasefire.
