Iran Utilizes Ceasefire to Restore Missile Bases

Iran is reportedly using the current ceasefire to excavate its missile bases that were buried by U.S. and Israeli airstrikes. Satellite images show trucks and heavy machinery at missile sites near Khomeyn and Tabriz, clearing debris from underground tunnels. The work appears focused on restoring access to missile launchers, which were sealed off during the conflict. This development follows warnings from U.S. intelligence about Iran's efforts to make its missile bunkers operational again. The ceasefire remains in effect as mediators attempt to bring Washington and Tehran back to the negotiating table.
