Majid ibn al-Rida, acting head of the Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics, announced that in the 40-day war, not only has the Islamic Republic not stopped “producing defense products,” but “in some areas it has seen growth of two to several times.”

Ibn al-Rida said: “We also experienced the upgrading of capabilities during operations; so that in the different waves of attacks, in terms of technology and performance, we acted in a way that was different and more effective than before.”

The acting head of the Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics added that the Islamic Republic has obtained “many intelligence and technological findings” from the enemy and has become familiar with its “tactical patterns and methods of operation.”
