Reports have indicated that Iran has positioned hundreds of ballistic missiles in underground strategic bases across the country, ready for launch in the event of any act of aggression from the United States. These missile systems are part of Iran’s military deterrence strategy, designed to safeguard its sovereignty and defend against external threats, particularly from the U.S. and its allies. Iran has continually emphasized its right to defend itself and has developed a range of missile capabilities over the years, which are seen as a response to perceived regional and international threats. This development reflects the tense geopolitical environment in the Middle East, with ongoing concerns about military escalation between the U.S. and Iran, especially following the U.S.’s withdrawal from the nuclear deal and the subsequent re-imposition of sanctions.
