Iranian army spokesman Mohammad Akraminia has claimed on Iranian state television that “almost all” US military infrastructure has been destroyed during recent attacks by the IRGC on Erbil in Iraq’s semi-autonomous Kurdish region, according to the Anadolu news agency.

Speaking to Iranian state television, Akraminia claimed Tehran was now deploying newer attack drones with greater accuracy and were more advanced than the Arash-2.

He added that Iran had inflicted serious damage on US military bases across the region, claiming many of them had lost much of their operational capability.

He said that if the conflict resumed, Iran was prepared to continue military operations “until the Americans realise they cannot impose their will on the Iranian nation through aggression”.
