Iran has unveiled a new underground missile facility, showcasing its advanced ballistic missile systems, including the Emad, Qadr, and Qiam missiles. The facility, described as a 'missile city', was toured by Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Commander Major General Hossein Salami and Aerospace Forces Commander Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh. The unveiling comes amid heightened tensions with the United States and Israel, and follows a parade of paramilitary Basij volunteers in Tehran. The underground base, which reportedly stores thousands of ballistic missiles deep inside a mountain, with only 10% of the facility shown to the public, was used in a previous attack against Israel. This move is seen as a demonstration of Iran's military strength and self-reliance, particularly in light of recent regional setbacks.
