Washington, March 4 (Xinhua) — Since the start of massive US and Israeli strikes on Iran, Iranian missile launches have sharply decreased, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Kaine said at a Pentagon briefing on Wednesday.

As of Wednesday morning, "the number of ballistic missiles launched by Iran has dropped by 86 percent compared to the first day of hostilities," D. Kane reported, noting that "a 23 percent decline has been recorded in the last 24 hours alone."

“The number of kamikaze drones launched by Iran has decreased by 73 percent,” he added, promising that the US would begin “striking deeper into Iranian territory.”

Wednesday marked the fifth day of the conflict. US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated at a Pentagon briefing that the American military operation against Iran was "in its very early stages."
