Israel has reportedly conducted airstrikes on Iran, targeting multiple secretive military bases outside Tehran, including the Parchin military complex, Khojir missile facility, and Shamsabad Industrial City. Satellite images analyzed by researchers and news agencies, including nuclear expert David Albright, reveal significant damage to these sites. The Parchin complex, linked to Iran's onetime nuclear weapons program, is known for its involvement in missile and high-explosive production. The Khojir facility is critical for ballistic missile production, and the strikes specifically aimed at 12 industrial mixers used for solid-fuel rocket engine production. The Shamsabad Industrial City, reportedly related to drone manufacturing, also sustained damage. The attacks occurred in the early morning hours on Saturday.
