US says it has destroyed Iran missile capacity: How is Iran still shooting?

AI Summary
Despite claims from the US that joint US-Israeli attacks have significantly degraded Iran's missile and drone capabilities since the start of "Operation Epic Fury" on February 28, 2026, Iran continues to launch projectiles. While the number of missiles and drones fired by Iran has decreased substantially since the beginning of the conflict, as evidenced by statements from the UAE Defence Ministry and Israel's Institute for National Security Studies, Iran retains enough capacity to launch attacks. Recent missile launches have triggered alerts in Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Bahrain, with one missile causing a fatality in Abu Dhabi. The US Pentagon reported a 90% decrease in missile launches and an 86% decrease in drone attacks compared to the initial days of the war.
