Iran is making a lot of noise about its military power lately. Despite big problems with its economy and industries, the country is now producing about 50 missiles every month.
Recently, Iran showed off a new "missile city." This is an underground base built to hide weapons so enemy radar can't find them easily. The government wants to show that it is ready for a fight, even if the country is struggling with poverty and a lack of safety shelters for its own people.
Some critics are angry about these new bases. They say the government should be spending money on citizens instead of building more weapons in hidden tunnels.
At the same time, top Iranian officials, like Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, are talking tough. They claim that if a war happens, Iran will control where it takes place. Iran also recently decided to stop following a rule that limited their ballistic missiles to a range of 2,000 kilometers (about 1,240 miles).
By taking this limit off, Iran can now work on missiles that can travel even further. Experts are watching closely to see what this means for safety and peace in the region.
