Satellite images provide view inside Iran at war Satellite imagery from commercial providers has offered a detailed look at the scale of U.S. and Israeli military actions in Iran, as well as the country’s retaliatory responses. The conflict has seen extensive strikes targeting Iran’s military infrastructure, with satellite photos capturing the aftermath of attacks on key facilities across the nation. The campaign began with a daytime assault on central Tehran, where Israeli forces struck the leadership compound of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader. Satellite images from Airbus show the site of the attack, with smoke lingering over the area following the strike that resulted in Khamenei’s death. The attack marked the opening phase of the operation, which quickly expanded to include hundreds of military targets nationwide. In southern Iran, satellite images reveal significant damage at the Konarak naval base, where multiple Iranian vessels were destroyed. A burning ship was captured in a February 28 image, and subsequent photos show the base’s infrastructure under heavy bombardment. The strikes also targeted hardened aircraft shelters at the Konarak Airbase, with precision munitions striking the facilities. Additionally, buildings at an Iranian drone base in the area were completely destroyed. Iran’s long-range missile capabilities, housed in mountainous tunnels, were also hit during the attacks. Satellite images from Sunday show signs of damage to these tunnels in northern Iran, indicating that the strikes disrupted the country’s strategic missile arsenal. In response to the attacks, Iran declared 40 days of mourning following Khamenei’s death. Satellite photos depict large crowds gathering in Tehran’s Enghelab Square, where mourners paid tribute to the late leader.#iran #tehran #airbus #konarak_naval_base #esmail_baghaei
