Iran resumes ballistic missile production, officials say

The significance here is less the volume of output than the fact of resumption: restarting a halted production line implies supply chains, tooling and workforce have been reconstituted, which is harder to reverse than a single batch of hardware. The signal matters most for regional security calculations and for any monitoring regime that had assumed the pause was durable. Whether the small-batch pace scales, and whether the restart is confirmed by independent sources, is the open question.
