Tehran restores missile stockpile, accelerates threat to Israel, proving Iran’s “peace” rhetoric is pure deception.
Iran is racing at full speed to rebuild the military power Israel shattered during Operation Rising Lion. Channel 13 News reported Friday night that Tehran has already renewed most of its missile stockpile and is just months away from possessing the 2,000 long-range missiles it held before Israel’s devastating strike campaign six months ago.
According to the report, Iran’s missile factories are operating around the clock, producing new surface-to-surface weapons designed specifically to threaten Israel’s cities, strategic sites, and population centers. Though the IDF destroyed launch capabilities and above-ground infrastructure, many of Iran’s deep-buried tunnel storage depots were blocked but not destroyed — allowing the regime to refurbish and repurpose missiles at alarming speed.
Israeli intelligence is watching the missile race with growing urgency. Tehran’s lesson from the 12-day war was simple: go deeper underground and prioritize mass launches over precision. Iran now seeks quantity — saturation fire meant to overwhelm Israeli defenses.
While the missile program accelerates, Iran’s nuclear framework is quietly being restored. Although no renewed uranium enrichment has been detected, Israeli and American intelligence warn that rebuilding the infrastructure is the first step toward quickly reactivating enrichment whenever the regime chooses.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian continues projecting the usual deceptive narrative: “Iran seeks peace,” he insisted recently — while simultaneously vowing never to curtail either the missile program or nuclear capabilities. His statements are a familiar mix of grievance, threat, and defiance.
Pezeshkian declared,
“We will not give up our nuclear science or our right to defend ourselves with missiles.”
In the same breath, he threatened that if struck again, Iran would rebuild its nuclear sites “stronger than before,” boasting that underground experts already possess all necessary knowledge.
His remarks followed President Trump’s revelation that Tehran had been asking about sanctions relief — a request Iran now masks behind bravado and belligerence.
The regime’s bottom line is unchanged:
- Claim ‘peace’ publicly
- Accelerate missiles and nuclear infrastructure privately
- Threaten Israel continuously
- Rely on terror proxies to destabilize the region
As Israel tracks Iran’s renewed arsenal and restored nuclear framework, it is increasingly clear that the next confrontation will not be a question of if — but when.
