Exclusive footage obtained by journalist Mandy Asraf shows the entrance to a new missile tunnel being built beneath the IRGC ground forces headquarters in eastern Tehran, according to an Iranian worker who provided the footage. The worker reports that the tunnel is one of six under construction, with three intended for launchers and three for personnel, and that Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf and IRGC commander Ahmad Vahidi visited the site last week. The claims cannot be independently verified.
Exclusive footage obtained by journalist Mandy Asraf, reportedly from an Iranian worker at the site, shows the entrance to a new missile tunnel under construction beneath the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) ground forces headquarters in eastern Tehran. The worker states that the tunnel is one of six currently under construction: three intended for launchers and three for personnel. According to the worker, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf and IRGC commander Ahmad Vahidi visited the site last Sunday without prior notice.
The Zioneer previously reported on August 4 that an individual claiming to be an IRGC soldier provided a detailed account of a vast underground tunnel network beneath the same headquarters, including missile storage and launchers, and a visit by the same officials. The new footage adds visual evidence to those claims, though both reports originate from a single source each and cannot be independently verified. The worker also noted that one tunnel leads to the Parchin military complex, a site associated with Iran's past nuclear activities.
The report underscores ongoing Iranian efforts to expand its underground missile infrastructure, a key element of the IRGC's strategic deterrence. The visit by the parliament speaker and IRGC commander indicates the high priority of this project. As with all single-source intelligence, confidence remains limited pending further corroboration.
