Secretary Hegseth: The United States is decimating the radical Iranian regime's military, in a way the world has never seen before. Never before has a modern, capable military, which Iran used to have, been so quickly destroyed and made combat ineffective. Devastated. We said it would not be a fair fight, and it has not.

Secretary Hegseth: It's not just that Iran doesn't have a functioning air force, or that their entire navy is at the bottom of the Persian Gulf, or their missile force is shrinking daily, even more importantly, they also don't have the ability to build more. That;s the most important point I'd like to emphasize today. Soon, and very soon, all of Iran's defense companies will be destroyed. For example, as of two days ago, Iran's entire ballistic missile production capacity; every company that builds every component of those missiles, has been functionally destroyed. Buildings, complexes, and factory lines all across Iran, destroyed. So, we're shooting down and destroying what missiles they still have in stock, but more importunately, ensuring that they have no ability to make more. Their production lines, their military plants, their defense innovation centers, defeated.

Secretary Hegseth: Iran's leadership is in no better shape. Desperate and hiding, they've gone underground. Cowering. That's what rats do. We know the so-called not so supreme leader, is wounded and likely disfigured.

Chairman Caine: We've attacked over six thousand targets, and our strike packages continue to launch every hour, and we've maintained an unprecedented number of sorties up overhead of Iran. CENTCOM is now persistently over the enemy, and as a result, we're seen a reduction in missile and one-way attack fire, as the secretary said.

Chairman Caine: In just the first thirteen days of this operation, our artillery forces have made history. They fired the first precision strike missiles ever used in combat, reaching deep into enemy territory, they've used Army ATACMS to sink multiple ships, including a submarine, and they've done all of this with the precision and determination that comes from relentless training and trust. In each other, and their weapon system.
