some no-name trolls were saying Iran doesn't have the capability to hit precise targets like this lol. Well there you go, confirmed by the New York Times.
I assume that the 2 balls things are either radars or the aforementioned satellite terminals, and the buildings that were partially flattened were monitoring stations where the operators sit?
The two white bulbs is the radar themselves, they used to look like this (maybe still do, but this is a soviet one for example: https://www.dreamstime.com/abandoned-dome-old-soviet-military-radar-cold-war-huge-structure-form-white-sphere-mountain-image231240498). It's possible this is what they mean by satellite terminals, if the radar is meant to communicate with satellites? Otherwise I couldn't say more.
Completely obliterated. There was an earlier AI picture of this particular sphere that minimized the damage even lol. In reality there's just nothing left of it.
