• Sunday: about 60 missiles launched • Monday–Thursday: about 20 missiles per day, fired in several small salvos
According to the IDF, more than 300 Iranian ballistic missile launchers — roughly 60% of Iran’s arsenal — have been destroyed since the start of the conflict.
Meanwhile, U.S. CENTCOM chief Adm. Brad Cooper said Iran’s missile attacks have decreased by about 90% compared to the first day of the war.
Iranian media claims that around 500 ballistic missiles have been fired overall, including launches targeting other countries in the region.
