Iran still has “21, 22 per cent” of its missiles left, US President Donald Trump says, after Tehran fired dozens across the region during a week marked by repeated violations of a fragile ceasefire, AFP.

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

That estimate for Iran’s remaining missile stockpile is higher than the 18pc Trump gave in May, and he has often claimed to have completely destroyed Iran’s war-fighting capacity.

Weeks of complex talks marked by threats and flare-ups of violence have failed to secure a deal to end the war. But Trump said Iran has “got no choice” except to reach an agreement.

“They’re strong, they’re proud, there are things they never thought they’d be doing that they’re going to have to do,” he tells NBC.
