IRGC claims U.S. strategic reserves depleted following Iran conflict

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claims that the United States has suffered significant depletion of its strategic military and resource reserves following direct confrontations with Iran. IRGC spokesperson Hosein Mohabi stated that the conflict has caused structural damage to Washington’s power by exhausting stockpiles of weaponry, oil, aluminum, and chemical fertilizers.

Mohabi warned that this depletion reduces the United States' ability to manage multiple simultaneous military scenarios, potentially limiting its capacity to respond to new threats in the Western Pacific from actors such as China or Russia. He noted that replenishing these arsenals could take years.

The IRGC further asserted that because direct military confrontation failed, adversaries have shifted toward a new strategy involving economic pressure, psychological warfare, and internal destabilization efforts. This includes attempts to exploit social divisions and conduct clandestine operations to undermine national security and cohesion.
