The Iranian army has claimed that almost all U.S. military infrastructure located in Iraq’s Erbil has been destroyed. These claims are solely based on statements from an Iranian military spokesperson and have not been independently verified by U.S. or international officials.
Brig. Gen. Mohammad Reza Akraminia, a spokesperson for the Iranian army, stated that Iran inflicted serious damage on U.S. military bases across the region.
Akraminia further asserted that the destruction of infrastructure in Erbil has left anti-Iran groups in the area incapable of carrying out operations.
Akraminia warned that Iran remains prepared to continue military operations should the conflict resume.
Deployment of Advanced Drone Technology
The Iranian military reported using Arash-2 drones during the 40-day war, according to official statements (claim:6).
Iran claims to be currently deploying newer drones featuring greater destructive power, accuracy, and range than the Arash-2 models (claim:7).
Specific details regarding these new drone systems have not yet been made public, according to military officials (claim:8).
