Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 21:05

TL;DR

Satellite imagery published on Saturday evening confirms that Iranian ballistic missiles struck a drone base near al-Muwaqib in Jordan, damaging newly built aircraft hangars that were constructed only nine days ago, according to the imagery. The extent of casualties or operational impact has not been reported.

01 · THE DISPATCH

The latest satellite imagery, published on Saturday evening, offers a more detailed look at the damage inflicted by Iranian ballistic missiles on Jordanian territory. The images show that the strike targeted a drone base near al-Muwaqib, hitting newly built aircraft hangars that were erected only nine days ago. This follows earlier satellite imagery today that revealed two buildings damaged at a Royal Jordanian Air Force base, as The Zioneer reported. The hangars' very recent construction suggests the site may have been a newly established facility. The source of the imagery is a single source, and the findings have not been independently verified by official sources. The attack is part of the broader IRGC campaign against U.S. and allied military infrastructure in the region, which has also included strikes on bases in Bahrain and Qatar, as previously reported by The Zioneer. The operational impact on the drone base and any casualties remain unknown.
