IRGC commander claims Iran has replenished missiles faster during ceasefire

Iran has been able to upgrade and replenish its drone and missile capabilities faster during the two-week ceasefire with the U.S. than before the war, a senior Iranian military commander claimed Monday.

Brigadier General Majid Mousavi, commander of the Aerospace Force of Iran's powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, posted a video online Sunday showing him at what appeared to be an underground manufacturing facility, with what looked like missiles being assembled.

He said that during the ceasefire, which is due to end Wednesday, Iran has restocked its missile and drone arsenal at a faster rate than it was doing before the war.

"The enemy is unable to recreate such conditions for itself and is forced to bring ammunition from across the world in a very limited, gradual manner," Mousavi wrote in the post.  

U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and President Trump have for weeks identified degrading Iran's ability to build new drones and missiles as a key priority of the offensive, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said a month ago that joint U.S.-Israel strikes had already destroyed Iran's "ability to produce ballistic missiles."
