The article notes that more strikes have hit Israel, but the government is not sharing data about the quantity of weapons coming in.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Tuesday that Iran had fired the lowest number of missiles in a 24-hour period since the war began.

Hegseth said, "Our strikes mean we’ve made significant progress in reducing the number of missile and drone attacks out of Iran."
