(Worthy News) – Iran says it launched a new drill in the Persian Gulf using cruise missiles, drones and other weapons.
This is the latest military drill for Iran, which has continued to conduct these kinds of exercises designed to show off an array of powers. This drill included the IRGC’s naval units, which exist alongside Tehran’s conventional navy.
Once again, Iran said that it used locally built weapons, highlighting that it claims it doesn’t rely on other countries for its systems. In the past year, the Islamic Republic has exported drones to Russia and Iran continues to traffic weapons all over the Middle East, including to Hezbollah and the Houthis.
