The Israeli Air Force has conducted a precision strike resulting in the destruction of a major research center belonging to the Iranian Space Agency located in Tehran.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that this information was released by the press service of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
According to official statements, the facility housed strategic laboratories dedicated to military satellites. These laboratories performed critical functions, including high-resolution surveillance, intelligence data collection, and fire-control guidance for targets across the Middle East. Additionally, several facilities involved in the production of air defense systems were also targeted and neutralized during the operation.
This escalation comes amid heightened regional tensions and ongoing concerns regarding Iran's ballistic missile and satellite programs. International observers note that such facilities are often dual-use, serving both civilian space exploration and military reconnaissance purposes. The neutralization of these assets is expected to significantly impact Tehran's ability to monitor regional military movements in the short term.
