Satellite Images Show Explosion At Iranian Missile Base


Images Show Explosion At Iranian Base Cause Extensive Damage -- CNN

(CNN) -- An Iranian military compound that blew up earlier this month was extensively damaged, the Institute for Science and International Security said after an analysis of new satellite imagery.

ISIS compared a November 22 image from DigitalGlobe to one from September.

"Some buildings appear to have been completely destroyed. Some of the destruction seen in the image may have also resulted from subsequent controlled demolition of buildings and removal of debris. There do not appear to be many pieces of heavy equipment such as cranes or dump trucks on the site, and a considerable amount of debris is still present," according to the analysis posted on ISIS website.

My Comment: Wow .... according to the pictures that I have seen .... much of the base was destroyed or damaged. On the bright note .... this explosion has probably delayed Tehran's missile development track.
