Satellite imagery reveals Iran employing heavy equipment to excavate the entrances to its underground missile bases, specifically to dig out missile launchers that became trapped during the recent conflict. According to CNN, US intelligence estimates that roughly half of Iran's missile launchers remain intact after a month of fighting, with many likely buried by US and Israeli strikes on tunnel entrances. Iran now appears to be actively recovering these launchers during the ceasefire period, indicating efforts to restore military capabilities. This activity comes amid ongoing negotiations between the US and Iran over extending the current ceasefire.
