Iran's drone assaults have decreased by 95% as Operation Epic Fury, initiated on February 28, 2026, continues to intensify. U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announced that the U.S. and Israel are preparing for their most significant strikes yet, with over 6,000 targets attacked in the campaign. The operation aims to dismantle Iran's military capabilities, including its leadership, missile systems, and naval power. Hegseth reported that Iran's missile volume has dropped by 90%, and its one-way attack drones are nearly eradicated. The U.S. military's ongoing airstrikes are focused on Iran's mine-laying operations and missile launchers, particularly affecting maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. The situation remains fluid, with further assaults expected in the coming days. The total impact on Iran's military capabilities and U.S. casualties is still under assessment.
