"One of our important goals is launchers. At the moment, according to our estimates, more than 50% of rocket launchers in Iran have been destroyed. Of course, this also affects their ability to launch missiles on our territory," Ukolova said.

The army also records a decrease in the intensity of shelling from Iran, but the threat exists, the spokeswoman added.
