Israeli intel firm: Iran building new missile facility in northern Syria

Iran is constructing a new surface-to-surface missile (SSM) facility in northwestern Syria, an Israeli satellite intelligence company says.

ImageSat International has released images it captured of the alleged facility in Wadi Jahannam.

It says the site’s layout is reminiscent of SSM facilities in Iran. It also notes an apparent surge in construction work at the site.

Channel 10 notes that a Russia S-400 air defense system located nearby could complicate any Israeli effort to strike the base.
