The United States can verify that only about one-third of Iran’s missile stockpile has been destroyed despite weeks of strikes, according to intelligence sources. The status of another portion remains unclear, with some missiles possibly damaged or hidden in underground sites. Officials say Iran still retains a significant number of operational weapons, highlighting limits in assessing the full impact of the campaign and the ongoing threat.
