Iran Conducts Large-Scale Exercises Using Hypersonic Missiles

Iran has conducted large-scale military exercises involving the use of hypersonic missiles across various regions of the country. The launches were carried out from bases of the Aerospace Forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, demonstrating the preservation of their combat capabilities.

The exercises took place against the backdrop of a visit by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the United States, where discussions include the situation around Iran and broader regional security issues. Previously, the Israeli side stated that IRGC infrastructure had been disabled during earlier military confrontations, but the recent launches cast doubt on those claims.

Iranian military officials did not disclose the specific technical characteristics of the missiles used, but emphasized that the drills were aimed at testing combat readiness and deterring potential threats. The maneuvers were accompanied by demonstrations of rapid response capabilities and coordination among various units.

In an interview with local media, the Israeli prime minister stated that he intends to discuss Iran’s missile program and the associated risks with U.S. President Donald Trump. According to him, Tehran’s actions require special attention within the framework of strategic dialogue between allies.

The exercises have become another element of heightened tensions in the Middle East and have increased concerns about a possible further escalation of the situation in the region.
