Iran Rebuilds Missile, Drone Arsenals Despite U.S.-Israeli Strikes

Iran has maintained its missile and drone production and replenished its weapons stockpiles despite U.S. and Israeli airstrikes, according to a Bloomberg report citing Western intelligence officials. This contradicts U.S. claims that strikes destroyed Iran's military capabilities. Despite President Trump's pledge to avoid pre-election strikes, the U.S. military is preparing potential offensive options. Meanwhile, Iran has intensified attacks on shipping and continues indirect negotiations with the U.S. over its nuclear program and regional security.
