The Iranian maintenance worker who previously provided footage of IRGC missile tunnels now tells journalist Mandy Asraf that the tunnel runs from eastern Tehran to the Parchin military complex, is currently under construction, and is approximately 40 kilometers long — a distance that matches the geography between the two locations. The testimony cannot be independently verified. Parchin houses nuclear research and development centers that were struck during Israel's Operation Rising Lion in June 2025, the journalist notes.
Journalist Mandy Asraf has reported new details from an Iranian maintenance worker who is providing testimony about IRGC missile tunnels under construction east of Tehran. According to the worker, one of the tunnels connects eastern Tehran to the Parchin military complex, a distance of approximately 40 kilometers, and is currently under construction. Asraf says the worker's account is corroborated by the known geography between Tehran and Parchin.
The Zioneer reported earlier today that the same worker had provided exclusive footage of the tunnel system. The new testimony adds the specific destination and confirms the tunnel's length. The claims remain unverified and are based on a single source — the worker — speaking through the journalist.
Parchin is one of Iran's most sensitive strategic sites. It houses research and development centers for nuclear weapons, parts of which were struck during Israel's Operation Rising Lion (מבצע עם כלביא) in June 2025, as the journalist notes. The existence of a 40-kilometer tunnel linking Tehran to Parchin would represent a significant expansion of Iran's underground military infrastructure, potentially allowing the IRGC to move personnel and equipment between the capital and the nuclear site without aerial detection.
