An analysis has been raised that Israel's attack on the 26th may have damaged the base where Iran's Revolutionary Guards manufacture ballistic missiles and launch rockets.

The Associated Press reported that a satellite image taken by US commercial satellite company Planet Labs PBC on the morning of the 29th showed that the main central building of the Shahrud Space Center in Semnan Province, 370 kilometers northeast of Tehran, was destroyed.

Regarding the concentration of vehicles around the site, the news agency said, "We assume that officials who want to investigate the damage gathered, and there were more cars than usual near the main gate."

In addition, three small buildings just south of the main building and another hangar in the northeast of the main building were also filmed damaged.

Iran said Israel's attacks took place in three provinces - Ilam, Khuzestan and Tehran - but did not mention the Shahrud base in Semnan province as the target of the attack.

However, after the Israeli attack, low-resolution images showed signs of damage that had not been seen before the attack, and it is highly likely that Israeli forces struck the base precisely, the Associated Press said.

He then pointed out that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard's ability to manufacture solid-fuel ballistic missiles could be further limited.

The Associated Press previously analyzed satellite images of two military bases near Tehran and reported that an Israeli attack destroyed the base used to manufacture ballistic missiles.
