Iran has claimed it has built weapons factories in several foreign countries but will not disclose their locations for now.

The statement was made by Iranian Defence Minister Aziz Nasirzadeh during a televised interview on Friday, Iran International reported.

“We have built weapons factories in some countries, but for now we will not announce which ones," Nasirzadeh said.

He also revealed that Iran had tested “new warheads in the past year that are both advanced and maneuverable."

Nasirzadeh’s remarks came just a day after Iran launched military exercises under the name “Sustainable Power 1404." These are Iran’s first solo drills since the 12-day air war with Israel in June, during which the country suffered heavy losses, including the destruction of its air defences and significant damage to its stockpile of ballistic missiles.
