How long will US-Israel war on Iran last? Chinese analysts offer clues
AI Summary
Chinese analysts suggest that continued US-Israeli strikes could deplete Iran's missile and drone stockpiles within two to three months. The analysis, prompted by the ongoing conflict that began February 28 with US-Israeli strikes on Iranian leadership, indicates Iran's ballistic missile reserves may be down to approximately 30%, leaving fewer than 1,000 units. While Iran possesses a significant drone advantage, the analysts caution that the war's duration depends less on remaining stockpiles and more on the effectiveness of new US deployments and President Trump's political considerations. The conflict involves Iranian attacks on Israel and US assets throughout the Middle East.
