The US carried out strikes on Qeshm Island earlier this month.Iran's Network Of Underground Missile Cities"Missile cities" as Iran calls these underground facilities, are used to store and launch missiles.The idea is to keep its missile stockpiles and launch systems safe from enemy airstrikes. By moving weapons and production facilities underground, Iran also hopes to keep its military operations running during a conflict.Israel has repeatedly targeted this network. During last year's war, Israeli forces struck Iranian missile launchers, storage facilities and related infrastructure in an effort to reduce Tehran's ability to fire back.However, Iran has since been working to restore damaged sites.Satellite images reviewed by Reuters in February showed repair work at missile bases hit during the conflict. The images also showed efforts to strengthen or hide sensitive military and nuclear facilities.The latest footage appears to be part of Iran's effort to show that its missile network remains operational and that it is preparing for the possibility of another round of fighting.
