MBABANE:Newly released satellite images show that Iran has recently built a concrete shield over a new facility at a sensitive military site and covered it in soil, advancing work at a location reportedly bombed by Israel in 2024 amid soaring tensions with the United States and the threat of regional war.
Aljazeera reported that, the images also show that, Iran has buried tunnel entrances at a nuclear site bombed by Washington during Israel’s twelve (12) day war with Iran last year – which the US joined on Israel’s behalf – fortified tunnel entrances near another, and has repaired missile bases struck in the conflict.
This comes as countries in the region and across the world closely monitor the prospect of a major escalation.
“On Thursday, Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk urged Polish citizens to leave Iran “immediately … and do not go to this country under any circumstances”. The satellite images offer a rare glimpse of Iranian activities at some of the sites at the centre of tensions with Israel and the US,” reads the Aljazeera report in part.
