Trump says Iran still has 22 % of its missiles remaining

US President Donald Trump said on Friday that Iran still possesses “21, 22 percent” of its missile arsenal, even as Tehran fired dozens of them toward regional neighbours during a period of a fragile ceasefire.

“They still have capacity. They have some missiles, they have some drones. I would say, percentage wise, maybe 21, 22 percent of their missiles,” Trump told NBC News in an interview.

That estimate is higher than the 18 percent figure Trump provided in May. He has repeatedly claimed to have completely destroyed Iran’s war‑fighting capability.

Iran’s military announced on Friday that it had launched “warning missiles” at two US destroyers in the Gulf of Oman—a claim that the US military promptly denied. Two days earlier, Kuwait reported intercepting 30 ballistic missiles fired as part of “heinous Iranian aggression.”
