A spokesperson for Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) stated that Iranian forces have destroyed four U.S. THAAD anti-missile systems and have yet to utilize a significant portion of their missile stockpile.

According to a report by Xinhua News Agency—citing a Sunday (March 15) dispatch from Iran's Tasnim News Agency regarding this war report—Iranian forces have to date struck 18 vessels and oil tankers linked to the United States and Israel. Furthermore, 200 critical strategic targets have been placed on their strike list, driving up daily U.S. and Israeli war expenditures to $1.5 billion.

The IRGC spokesperson claimed that, in targeting U.S. and Israeli assets, Iran has so far launched approximately 700 missiles and 3,600 drones. Notably, the vast majority of the missiles fired thus far were manufactured roughly a decade ago; many newer-generation missiles—developed following the "12-Day War" instigated by Israel against Iran last June—have yet to be deployed.

Separately, Tasnim News Agency reported on Sunday that a spokesperson for the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters of the Iranian Armed Forces stated that facilities providing logistics and support services to the U.S. Navy's aircraft carrier *Ford* would be designated as strike targets.

The *Ford* Carrier Strike Group is currently operating in the Red Sea, participating in large-scale U.S. and Israeli military operations directed against Iran.
