Iran's Revolutionary Guards Aerospace Force has escalated its efforts in updating and replenishing missile and drone launchers, now at a swifter pace than before its hostilities with the U.S. and Israel, as per Commander Majid Mousavi's Sunday announcement reported by Nournews.

The statement was released alongside an edited video showcasing Mousavi inspecting an underground missile site, including sequences of drones, missiles, and launchers within these hidden facilities, as well as ground missile launches.

However, Reuters has been unable to independently verify the authenticity of the footage or the specifics of the site shown in the video.
