Let me give you the numbers because the numbers are really striking. So on day one of this conflict, Iran launched 350 missiles, ballistic missiles. On day two, it dropped 175. On day three, it dropped 120. On day four, it dropped to 50. On day five, it dropped to 40. On day six, it dropped to 32. On day seven, it dropped to 28. And on day eight, it dropped all the way down to 15. So they went from 350 ballistic missiles launched a day to just 15 launched a day. How about drone swarms? Same pattern. Day one, 294. Day two, 541. (00:36–00:57)
