Iran excavates missile base entrances

Satellite imagery shows Iran using heavy equipment to excavate the entrances to its underground missile bases, specifically to dig out missile launchers that became trapped during the recent conflict. New U.S. intelligence estimates suggest roughly half of Iran's missile launchers remain intact after a month of fighting, with many likely having survived in these hardened facilities. This activity indicates Iran is working to restore its strategic strike capabilities during the ongoing ceasefire.
