- Iran says weapons production has moved underground.
- The IRGC says an underground missile complex will be unveiled.
- Mohebbi warned that restrictions on missile range had been lifted.

## Summary

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps says it is moving weapons production underground so it can continue even during heavy bombardment. The announcement signals Tehran’s effort to strengthen its military capacity amid the war with the United States and Israel, and comes as regional mediation efforts continue.

IRGC spokesperson Hossein Mohebbi said missile and drone production lines had been transferred from surface sites, and that an underground missile complex would soon be unveiled. He also claimed Iranian weapons use domestic technology and can evade air defences, and warned that limits on missile range had been lifted. The conflict began on 28 February; the article cites reports of billions of dollars in damage to US bases and Gulf infrastructure, alongside US strikes on Qeshm Island, sanctions and a naval blockade.
