Iranian army spokesperson Mohammad Akraminia claimed that nearly all US military infrastructure in Erbil, Iraq, has been destroyed. In remarks carried by Iranian state television and reported by Anadolu Agency, he said recent attacks by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps caused extensive damage to US facilities in Erbil. The report was published on July 26, 2026.

Akraminia also claimed Iran had inflicted severe damage on US military bases across different parts of the Middle East. He said many of those bases had lost their operational and management capacity as a result. The source did not provide independent confirmation of the reported damage or describe the specific facilities affected.

The spokesperson said Iran was deploying new attack drones that are more advanced and accurate than the Arash-2 drone. He added that Iran was prepared to continue military operations until Americans understood they could not impose their will on the Iranian nation through aggression. No response from the United States to the Iranian claims was available, according to the report.
