In a dynamic update amid rising tensions, Iran announced that its air defense systems, damaged during recent attacks, have now been replaced. This development comes after an unprecedented surprise bombing campaign in mid-June that significantly disrupted the nation’s defense capabilities.
During that intense period, unexpected strikes by Israel led Tehran to launch counter drone and missile attacks. Despite the setbacks, the resilience of Iran's military shone through as efforts to restore their defensive network were swiftly implemented.
Army operations chief Mahmoud Mousavi stated, "The Zionist enemy sought to destroy Iran's defense capabilities, and some of our defense systems were damaged in that war. The damaged defense systems have now been replaced."
The renewed network features cutting-edge domestic systems like the Bavar-373 and Khordad-15, alongside Russia's S-300 air defense systems, introduced in 2016. Designed to effectively counter missile and aircraft threats, this upgrade marks a crucial step in reinforcing Iran's security posture. Stay tuned for more updates on this evolving story! 😊
