WASHINGTON, United States, March 26, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - The United States has hit two-thirds of Iran's production facilities for missiles and drones, and a similar proportion of its naval production, a top officer said Wednesday. "We have damaged or destroyed over two-thirds of Iran's missile drone and naval production facilities and shipyards, and we're not done yet," he said, adding that US forces had now struck over 10,000 military targets. Iran has retaliated for the US and Israeli strikes by launching missiles at targets throughout the Gulf almost daily. But Cooper said that Iran's drone and missile launch rates were down by 90 percent, and "we've also removed the regime's ability to rebuild them." Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Wednesday that Iran did not plan to negotiate with the United States and intended to keep fighting, after the White House said talks were ongoing.
