Iranian missiles, drones dominate skies over the occupied territories: Military spox
Iranian missiles and drones are dominating the skies over the occupied territories as the war escalates, according to the spokesperson for Iran's armed forces.
In a video message on Friday, Lieutenant Colonel Ibrahim Zolfaghari, spokesperson for the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, said Israel’s missile system power has been decreased significantly after the Iranian Armed Forces succeeded in targeting the radar systems of Israel’s missile shield.
He added that the Iranian Armed Forces have maintained their preparedness to continue heavier attacks on the "child-killing" Israeli regime and the criminal United States and will carry out more acts of aggression against enemies based on pre-determined plans.
“While targeting all the interests and resources of the US and Zionist regime (Israel), the Islamic Republic of Iran will make its utmost efforts to preserve security in the Strait of Hormuz and prevent any damage to the regional countries,” Zolfaghari emphasized.
The spokesman noted that the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Navy targeted the US MQ9 drone base and smoke is rising from it.

His remarks came at a time of heightened tensions, following unprovoked US and Israeli aggression against Iran, which started on February 28, some eight months after they carried out military aggressions on the country.
Iran began to swiftly retaliate against the strikes by launching waves of missile and drone attacks on the Israeli-occupied territories as well as on US bases in regional countries.
Zolfaghari also warned that the Iranian Armed Forces will strongly hit any base being used by the US and Israel to act against the Islamic Republic or carry out military activities.
He said the Iranian Armed Forces are in full intelligence command and closely monitoring all moves along the country’s borders.
He also cautioned officials of the Iraqi Kurdistan region that any move or cooperation to deploy the enemy forces along Iran’s border will be responded to powerfully.
The commander reiterated Iran’s commitment to respect the national sovereignty of the countries in the region.
