A report by Bloomberg states that Iran's number of missile launchers has remained largely stable over the past week despite extensive strikes. The stability is mainly attributed to Iran's use of mobile launchers, which are harder to locate and destroy.

Sources within the Israel Defense Forces said that about two-thirds of Iran's missile launchers have been destroyed, only a modest increase from last week's estimate of roughly 60 percent. This suggests that progress in eliminating launch capabilities has slowed.

At the same time, Israeli assessments indicate that approximately 80 percent of Iran's air defense systems have been destroyed. However, Iran continues to deploy relatively simple missiles, such as the 358, which require less complex operational systems and are more difficult to detect and intercept.
