Suspected Syrian Scud site spotted by satellite
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleSatellite intelligence firm ImageSat is claiming to have spotted a long-range missile factory being built in Syria, possibly under the aegis of Iran.
According to a report by Israel’s Channel 2, the images show a Scud missile factory being built near the city of Baniyas, south of Latakia, in an area seen as a bastion of support for the embattled Assad regime.
Experts say the buildings match building methods seen in Iran, pointing to cooperation between Damascus and Tehran, one of Assad’s largest backers.
The site can also be seen in plain view on Google Maps.
