U.S.–Israeli Strikes Pound Iranian Military Sites as Imagery Shows Warship Sinking

Fresh satellite images corroborate heavy damage to Iranian military hubs following the first waves of strikes.

Overview

  • New Vantor imagery from Sunday shows a frigate burning at Konarak, destroyed or sinking vessels at the adjacent naval facility, and widespread damage to drone bases and aircraft shelters.
  • The U.S. military confirmed it hit a Jamaran-class corvette, saying the ship was sinking to the bottom of the Gulf of Oman.
  • Additional satellite views document an obliterated radar at Zahedan airbase and collapsed tunnels at Tabriz North Missile Base reported by Planet, indicating strikes on hardened sites.
  • Iran has fired missiles and drones at Israel and major U.S.-linked bases in several Gulf states, causing casualties and significant infrastructure damage across the region.
  • U.S. Central Command reported three American service members killed and five seriously wounded, as President Trump announced Operation Epic Fury and claimed nine Iranian naval vessels destroyed; Israel asserted senior commander deaths, and Iranian state media announced Khamenei’s death, which remains not uniformly corroborated in the reporting.
