Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced they are preparing to unveil a new weapon, which they called the "father of all bombs," in response to American threats to use the "mother of all bombs" against Iran's nuclear facilities. IRGC spokesman Hossein Mohbi told the Iranian news agency "Young Journalists Club" that it is "something new for the enemy," but refrained from providing details on the type of weapon, its power, or the timing of the unveiling. The announcement comes amid rising security tensions between Tehran and Washington, following reports that the Pentagon has prepared plans to use the GBU-43/B bomb against targets in Iran. Meanwhile, Mohbi claimed that Iran's missile stockpile has grown by 1.5 times since the 12-day war against Israel in June 2025, but did not provide data for verification.
