The United States carried out a 11th consecutive night of airstrikes on military targets inside Iran on July 22, but Iran has continued launching missile and drone attacks, according to BlockBeats. Analysts cited the recent attack on a base in Jordan that killed three US service members as a sign that Iran still retains significant ballistic missile strike capability. The report said some of Iran’s underground missile bases have resumed operations.
It also listed several weapons recently used by Iran, including the Kheibar Shekan, Fattah, Zolfaghar, Fateh-110 and Qiam ballistic missiles, as well as Shahed drones and Paveh cruise missiles. Commercial satellite imagery reportedly shows Iran repairing access roads to missile facilities, clearing tunnel entrances and gradually restoring launch capability from underground arsenals.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Washington remains willing to resolve the Iran crisis through diplomacy, but said Tehran is “not taking negotiations seriously” at this stage. Rubio also said the US would not allow Iran to control the Strait of Hormuz, warning that such a move would set a dangerous precedent for the security of international shipping lanes. Separately, Iranian Interior Minister Momeni has visited Pakistan and asked Islamabad to continue mediating between the US and Iran.
